Withywood has a number of primary schools: Fair Furlong, Four Acres, Gay Elms and Merchants Academy. There is a secondary school, Merchants Academy, which opened in November 2008, before the demolition of the former Withywood Community School. All of the schools have sports fields and grounds. They have also been a registered charity since 1996.
