Danebury School (previously Test Valley School) is a comprehensive secondary school located in Stockbridge, Hampshire, England. Due to its rural location, it has a wide catchment area, with significant numbers of students travelling from Andover, Wherwell, Romsey, The Wallops and other small villages near to Stockbridge.

The school is a member of the HISP Multi-Academy Trust, having joined on the 1st February 2024. The school was renamed to Danebury School upon joining the trust.
