Background
History
The school opened in 1952 as Harborne Hill School; the first headteacher was Miss D Hill. In 2010, due to economic issues, the school became an academy. There was some difficulty finding a sponsor for it after Ark Schools pulled out, but it was eventually sponsored by Birmingham Metropolitan College.
