Hameldon Community College is a mixed 11-16 comprehensive school in Burnley, Lancashire, England, with specialist status as a Business and Enterprise College and Science College. The school opened in September 2006 as part of ambitious plan to replace all of the district’s 11-16 schools, funded by a government public–private partnership programme called Building Schools for the Future. It was formed from the merger of Habergham High School and Ivy Bank Business and Enterprise College and initially occupied the adjacent sites of the former schools. Habergham High School was formed in 1981 from the merger of male Burnley Grammar School and neighbouring female 'Burnley High School for Girls' and quickly earned a reputation as the borough's leading mixed Comprehensive school. Ivy Bank was initialy a girls high school that shared the site of the other two schools, and it also became a mixed comprehensive in 1981. This school enjoyed a steadily improving reputation, becoming one of the first specialist business and enterprise colleges in the country in 2002.
