By 1971 the school population had grown to over 1,000 and became a Comprehensive School.[2] It has a student support centre to help students with bullying and social issues. The sixth form college was built on a part of the school playing fields as a self-sufficient building comprising a common room, a library and computer room, a conference room and several teaching rooms.
