The school opened on its site in the western suburbs of Trowbridge in 1967.[2] Previously a voluntary aided school, it has been an academy since September 2011.
When inspected by Ofsted in November 2021, the school was assessed as 'requires improvement' in all categories.[3] This was its first inspection after conversion to an academy, since the academy inherited an 'outstanding' rating from its predecessor and was therefore exempt from inspection for a while.[3] The 2021 report stated that pupils feel safe, attend punctually and behave well in lessons.[3]
Notable alumni include the actors Will Thorp and Sam Otto, and the world champion athlete Danny Talbot.
