The secondary school, off Henne Drive in Coseley, shut its doors in July 2017 in a controversial decision by Dudley Council due to dwindling numbers and poor performance.
Workers recently broke ground at the site to make way for a new school, Coseley Technology Primary, which will be led by Shireland Collegiate Academy Trust.
The trust runs a number of schools in the Black Country including Thorns Collegiate Academy in Brierley Hill, West Bromwich Collegiate Academy and Holyhead Primary Academy in Wednesbury.
A spokeswoman for the trust said the new school is due to be open in time for the first intake of pupils in September 2025 and will offer "state-of-the-art" facilities.
