History

In 2006, Ailwyn community college and Ramsey Abbey School amalgamated into a single school. Ramsey Abbey had been active for centuries since it was founded by monks, whereas Ailwyn was founded in the 1950s. On 1 September 2011, the school officially gained academy status.

In 2011, the school was labelled by Ofsted as "A good school with outstanding features". In both 2014 & 2016, it was labelled as "requires improvement."[1]
