History
The school began as a girls' grammar school the 'Hornsey High School for Girls in 1887, by the Church Schools Company (now the United Church Schools Trust). In 1915 it moved to new buildings in Weston Park. In 1971, it moved to newly built premises on Inderwick Road.[1]
It later became a girls-only comprehensive school.
Structural problems
In 2023, it was discovered that parts of the school were in danger of collapse due to RAAC construction. Remedial works had to be initiated. [2]
