The school first opened as Woodfield Secondary School. After the Education Act 1944, Spring Grove Central School and the council senior schools became secondary modern schools. The Hounslow Heath secondary school was closed and its buildings were transferred to the neighbouring primary school when the Woodfield secondary modern school was opened in 1954 at the Great South West Road. Cranford Community College was officially opened in 1975.[citation needed]
COVID-19
In 2020 and 2021, examinations were cancelled in favour of teacher predicted grades (due to the COVID-19 pandemic). Grading was assessed using a combination of mock exams and classroom performance.
In 2021, some of the A-Level Mathematics and Science mock exams and grade data were leaked, and were able to be accessed by students. Fortunately, this was resolved when teachers discovered students accessing these materials.
