History

The school was founded in 1322/1323, and in its early history it was known as Northallerton Free School.[2] Parts of the old school building can be seen adjacent to All Saints' Church near the north end of Northallerton High Street. The Grammar School moved to the Grammar School Lane site in 1909.[3]

Selective school

In the 1940s it had around 250 boys and girls, and 450 by 1970. It was administered by the North Riding Education Committee.

In the 1950s there was a two-form entry. The first year forms (unstreamed) were 1A and 1 Alpha, and forms 2 to 5 were streamed (2A/2B to 5A/5B) followed by a Lower Sixth and an Upper Sixth. Admission was by the Eleven plus exam with a further admission of a very small number by transfer from the Allertonshire School at the beginning of the third form. There were two houses for sports, Wensley (green) and Cleveland (blue).

Comprehensive

In 1973 it became a comprehensive under the name Northallerton Grammar School, administered by North Yorkshire, based in Northallerton. As a comprehensive it has always had a 14-18 age range. At the same time the Allertonshire School was formed from the town's two secondary modern schools. In 2009 the school became federated with Risedale Sports and Community College in Catterick.[4]

Recent history

In 1994 the school governors decided to change the name from Grammar School to College in order to reflect the reality of their service to the whole community. In 2015 Northallerton College merged with Allertonshire School to form Northallerton School. The school still operates over both of the former school sites, with the lower school on Brompton Road (the old Allertonshire School site) and the senior school and sixth form on Grammar School Lane (the old Northallerton College site).[5]

In April 2018, a new headteacher, Chris Drew, was appointed in light of the school being designated as "failing" by Ofsted in an earlier report.[6]

Academic performance

It gets GCSE results above average, and A level results at the England average.
