Cressex Community School is a cooperative trust secondary school in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. It is a foundation school, which takes children from the age of 6 through to the age of 23. The school has approximately 754 pupils. [2]

Cressex Community School has formed a partnership with nearby Wycombe Abbey independent school, which enables pupils from both schools to work together. [3]

The school was allocated £31 million of Government funding in 2007 to completely redevelop the site, which was falling into disrepair.[4] The current site was opened in 2010.[5]
