The school had one student who was awarded the Victoria Cross during World War I.
The Sixth Form Centre was opened in 2005. It has more facilities and was built to accommodate the rising amount of students who wish to carry on after GCSEs to do A Levels. The school gained a 'Healthy Schools' award in 2004/2005.
