In 1993, the school moved from its original site at Sefton Park Road, Toxteth (formerly Liverpool College and then Arundel College) to a site vacated by Paddington Comprehensive School at Mount Vernon, before moving to its current purpose-built site in September 2015. The school was awarded specialist Technology College status in 1995 and became a Training School in 2007. [4]
