History
St Anne's Academy opened in September 2007 replacing The Queen Elizabeth School that in turn was previously Hollin High School. The school has a capacity of up to 900 places.[3][6] The academy is jointly supported by the Church of England Diocese of Manchester, and David and Anne Crossland.[5][7] In 2007 the Academy received £17.6 million to build additional and refurbish existing buildings. The project was funded by the Church of England, private backers David and Anne Crossland, founders of Airtours Travel and the Government's Building Schools for the future programme. The work was completed summer 2012.[7]
