Hayesfield Girls' School is an all-girls secondary school with a co-educational sixth form located in Bath, England. In August 2011, the school became an academy. The school operates from two main sites, about a seven-minute walk apart. The campus at Brougham Hayes accommodates STEM subjects such as Science, Technology and Maths, and the Upper Oldfield Park campus hosts the Performing Arts, English and Sports faculties.
The first school to occupy the upper school site was Bath City Secondary School for Girls in 1922. This school had previously operated in the Guildhall alongside the boys' Bath City Secondary School (which ultimately became Beechen Cliff School). After World War II the school became a girls grammar school, enlarged with a pair of Edwardian villas at 39 and 41 Upper Oldfield Park. Later development included a technology block in 1957, a modular dining hall building, and modular classrooms in 1973.
The lower school site was originally known as the Somerset Industrial School for Boys in 1832. It was founded to accommodate 180 boys at Brougham Hayes on the Lower Bristol road, it had originally been built as a Barracks. It became a Domestic Science College in 1934, (formerly part of Bath Technical College). It was then occupied by the City of Bath Technical School for boys.West Twerton Secondary Modern School occupied the site after World War II.
Hayesfield School was formed in 1973 when the City of Bath reorganised secondary education by merging grammar schools and secondary modern schools to form comprehensive schools.West Twerton Secondary Modern School and City of Bath Girl's Grammar School were merged to form Hayesfield School.
The school was renamed Hayesfield School Technology College when it obtained Technology College status in 1999, but renamed again in 2009 becoming Hayesfield Girls' School.
