The school was established in 1909 as the Exeter State School. Following a merger with other state schools, in 1940 it became the West Tamar Area School. There followed further name changes, to Exeter Area School in 1954 and then to Exeter District High School in 1973. On 5 November 1985 the school was split into primary and secondary schools with the secondary streams forming Exeter High School.
