Ninestiles, an Academy is a secondary school with academy status in Acocks Green, Birmingham, England. It is a mixed comprehensive academy with nearly 1,500 students. Ninestiles was formed out of a merger between Hartfield Crescent and Pitmaston School in 1984. The merger saw the combined school renamed to Ninestiles School. The name referenced a path that closely ran between the two sites and had nine stiles. After two years on both sites, the school merged into a single site on Hartfield Crescent. There had been a school there since 1929 when Hartfield Crescent Council School was founded. In 1986 Fox Hollies Leisure Centre opened adjacent to the school, with pupils having access to the facilities.
