Background

History

The school first opened in 1959 as three schools on one site, a Grammar School and two Secondary Moderns. These later merged to become the single Walbottle Campus Technology College. The majority of the school's students come from feeder Primary Schools which are members of the Outer West Learning Trust, of which Walbottle Campus is an Associate Member. In 2008, Walbottle Campus received a new building as part of the government's Building Schools for the Future (BSF) private finance initiative scheme. Previously named Walbottle Campus Technology College, the government removed funding for the 'technology college' status and therefore the school was renamed Walbottle Campus.
