During the 1980s, the school ran an unusual timetable, blocking an entire half-year to take the same subject at the same time. This allowed both setting and mixed-ability teaching in the same subject. This timetable management was the subject of an Open University module and television programme.Head teachers / Principals / Heads of School Arthur Spencer: 1976–85 David Dennis: 1985–2000 Paul MacIntyre: 2000–03 Ron Richards: 2003–07 Neville Coles: 2007-2016Jane McBride 2016-PRESENT
