The school has occupied this site near to the centre of Sandbach since
1849. Its original buildings were designed by
Sir George Gilbert Scott and have been added to substantially in subsequent years. The school operated as a charitable boarding and day school until
1955, when its unique status was established. It then became the grammar school for boys in South Cheshire. The school began to take pupils of all abilities in
1979.
