The Site
To be honest, I could not find much history about this place other than it was closed in 2010, and the students were moved to a new school in the area. Since then the school has not been able to find a buyer.
This link contains a lot of information about the site if you are into that sort of thing

The Explore
This was a re-explore of the first place I had explored, and what got me into urbex. It was especially notable as I knew people who attended this school. Entrance was nothing notable and I will be using some photos from my other explores here.
The site used to have some interesting stuff until an entrance was opened and the place was smashed up, but nonetheless it is fun to climb the roofs.
The Pictures
the outside of the building:
Inside the main building
There was an alarm in the reception area that seems to be one of those you need a pin to turn off, it did not activate when i went back, but we did manage to activate it twice before. Not sure how it works as we have been in the area quite loud and with torches and the alarm hasnt gone off. But we have also been quiet in the dark and the alarm has? Take caution when visiting
The gym
This place is interesting, there was an alarm in the gym that I managed to activate my first visit here. I got it on film too which was great. Went back and the alarm was smashed up, can’t complain about that.

The roofs
All the roofs are accessible if you try hard enough, gym roof has been boarded but you can slide the board out the way. Main building roof has been coated in anti climb paint but there still is a way up
Main building roof
Gym roof
Side classrooms roof
All in all, nice to come back to a spot that got me into urbex, and to finally get a report up of it is better aswell.
