Originally founded as a girls' school, the first boys entered the secondary school in 1967 and it has continued to expand its enrollment numbers and its campus.^[1] It became a community school in 1983 after the opening of a new building and an additional expansion was completed in September 2001.^[1] The school is run by a Board of Managers, which is composed of 10 trustees, teachers, and parents who have been elected to the Board.^[1]

On 8 April, 2016 enrollment was over 1000 students(with a roughly 50:50 ratio of boys and girls, aged 12 to 18) and a teaching staff of more than 70.^[2] As of 2024, these numbers have increased to over 1200 students and more than 80 staff.^[1]
