Waseley Hills High School and Sixth Form Centre is a mixed secondary school and sixth form with academy status in the town of Rubery, on the border of the county of Worcestershire and the city of Birmingham, England, at the base of the Waseley Hills Country Park.

The school also has specialist hearing impaired provision, and a specialist able autism base.[1] It has gained a number of awards, including the Artsmark award in the academic term 2005/2006, and the Investor in People award.

A 2010 Ofsted report accorded the school a Grade 3 (satisfactory).[1]
