The Wellington Academy, founded in 2009, is Wiltshire's first academy. Located in the town of Ludgershall, the academy is an 11-19 non-selective state-funded school, sponsored by Wellington College, an independent school in Berkshire.

The President of the Academy is HRH the Duke of York, who performed the official opening of the new campus in November 2011. The first Principal of the Academy was Andy Schofield who oversaw its set-up, doubled its size to a school of over 1,000 and established its 6th Form. The Academy is now being run by Executive Principal, Dr Mike Milner and Senior Vice Principal, Ms Abrilli Phillip.

The Wellington Academy is the first in the country to take its name from an independent school, in this case Wellington College, founded as a national monument to the Duke of Wellington by Queen Victoria in 1859. Other independent schools were initially slow to do something similar, despite the high-profile campaign led by Wellington College's former Master Anthony Seldon. However, by 2011, around 28 independent schools were helping to run Academies, including Sevenoaks School, Dulwich College, Malvern College, Marlborough College, Oundle School, Uppingham School and Winchester College, with strong encouragement from Government for even greater involvement.
