School history

Cottingham High School was originally named Cottingham Secondary School and was established in 1955 as a Secondary Modern school. The school site is located on what was formerly Cottingham Grange, built in 1802. Part of the land which belonged to Cottingham Grange is now part of 'The Lawns', owned by the University of Hull for Student Halls of Residence.

Due to the increased numbers of students attending the school, the original building was no longer large enough and by September 1975 a new Science / Technical block was completed along with a second gymnasium and new sports hall. In 1978 a new Humanities / Modern Languages block was completed along with a Sixth Form block. In 2000 a new Drama and Music block was built, and a Business Studies block was completed in 2003.

Media Arts status

Since September 2004 Cottingham High School is a Specialist in Media and Performing Arts. This provides students at the school with new opportunities across all subject areas, extra equipment and facilities, including a Recording Studio, Film Editing Suite and extensive ICT facilities across the school.

Haltemprice Consortium

Since September 2009, Cottingham High School has been part of the Haltemprice Consortium along with Wolfreton School and Hessle High School.[1]
