History

Prior to becoming a Sixth Form College the building functioned as a fire station serving the central Norwich area until August 2011 when it closed down.^[3] Two years later the Sixth Form was created within the empty building with various additions being made to the existing structure. The sixth form was ranked the 7th best state sixth form in England by the Times in 2022.^[4]
