Although built c.1898 the school was actually opened in 1902. The 1911 Census shows that May Frances and Eliza (presumably Lilly) Annie Oldfield were the joint heads of the school. Boarders came from across the country but principally Lancashire, Yorkshire and Cheshire.

The school still retains some of its older scisntific equipment including this Low Voltage Experimental Power Unit.
