The school is now sponsored by Warrington Collegiate,[2] however the school continues to coordinate with Warrington Borough Council regarding its admissions.
The school moved into a new building in 2016, funded by the Government's Priority Schools Building Programme, on the same site and constructed by Wates Group.[3]
