History
Grammar school
It opened under the supervision of the De La Salle Brothers in September 1959 as a grammar school with the first two years, gradually increasing year by year. The second year students were drawn from existing grammar schools in the area.
In the second year of existence the building work had not been completed and hence students attended on a half day basis. It was administered by Lancashire Education Committee and by 1967 had 780 boys.[citation needed] In 1974, it was taken over by the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale.[citation needed] Since then, the number of De La Salle brothers teaching at the school reduced and by the early 1990s all Lasallian brothers had left.
Comprehensive
It became a comprehensive in 1979.[citation needed]
