The school opened in 1962 as a secondary modern and became a comprehensive in 1973.^[2] 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.^[3] 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.

The school complex includes a sports hall, main hall, main building, drama block, humanities block and science block. There are also numerous non-educational buildings around the site, including an old farm previously acquired by the school.
