Haven High Academy

Haven High Academy (formerly Haven High Technology College and Haven High School) is a secondary school with academy status located on Marian Road in the north of Boston, Lincolnshire, England. The school came into being in September 1992 as the result of a merger of the then Kitwood Girls School and Kitwood Boys School.In 2023 it emerged that pupils at the school were part of a system of fights being planned for social media audiences. School leadership commented that the events were taken very seriously as part of a nationwide promotion of school fights, and that all staff at Haven High Academy were already "fully committed" regarding safeguarding and promotion. Earlier the same year, school leadership said that pupils protesting at not being permitted to use toilet facilities would be "met with sanctions", and that "prison rules" would be enforced. Headteacher Stuart Rees said that this was part of a "nationwide trend". Following protests against the school's policies, which were supported by some parents, Lincolnshire Police initiated an investigation.In 2021 the assistant head of the school's music program was banned from teaching indefinitely after admitting having a sexual relationship with a pupil. A 15-year-old pupil also stabbed a 12-year-old boy to death in 2021 after luring him to a wooded area near the school.Ofsted inspections of the school in 2016, 2019 and 2022 all resulted in judgements of Requires Improvement, the second lowest category of performance. This was despite an interim Ofsted monitoring report in December 2021 indicating that the school was making rapid progress in addressing the areas of concern. Ofsted indicated that the school was still part of Voyage Education Partnership.

It is situated approximately 7 miles (11 km) north from the market town of Boston. It lies within The Fens and was largely uninhabited marshland until the early nineteenth century. Drainage of an area known as West Fen began in 1802, and in 1812 a township called Carrington was created covering some of the drained land, named after Robert Smith, 1st Baron Carrington, the main landowner. The township became a civil parish in 1858. The civil parish of Carrington also included New Bolingbroke, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) to the north. The parish was renamed "Carrington and New Bolingbroke" in November 2022, at which point the parish council also declared the parish to be a town, allowing it to take the style "town council" and appoint a mayor. The parish also contains the hamlet of Medlam. The parish has a population of 564 according to the 2001 census, reducing slightly to 554 at the 2011 Census.Carrington church is dedicated to St Paul, and was built of red brick in 1816 under the Fen Chapel Act (1816), with its chancel being added in 1872.

By the time of its closure in 1987 it was known as Carrington County Primary School. Children now attend school in nearby Stickney.Carrington Rally is an annual event which has taken place each spring for over 50 years, and is a steam and tractor show which supports local charities.The Carrington Glasshouse of Dyson Farming is based in Carrington.
