The school is first depicted on the 1937 OS map and is contemporary with the surrounding housing estate. Formerly it was part of Wheatley Park, the private parkland of Wheatley Hall. It was used as a golf course for a short time at the beginning of the 20th century. The grounds were probably created from the medieval fields at Wheatley called East, Middle and West Sands fields. Legibility of the former landscape is invisible.
