History

The school opened in 1962 as a secondary modern and became a comprehensive in 1973. There used to be a link between the school and Dauntsey's School, where pupils could go to study in the sixth form at Dauntsey's. However, this link ended around 1994. In the 1970s and 80s, the school had four houses: Bradon (blue), Grovely (green), Ridgeway (red) and Wansdyke (yellow). Under the defunct specialist schools programme, the school held Maths and Computing College status.
