The original site was on Holderness Road but it was turned down because it was too expensive at £500. A site was chosen along James Reckitt Avenue in the East Hull suburbs, overlooking East Park. The main school building was designed as a two storey Neo-Georgian building, with a central spine encompassing offices, library, assembly hall and gymnasium. All the classrooms were to face south, extending out in two wings with the science laboratories along the sides. Originally, girls were taught in the first floor classrooms and boys on the ground floor, a system which was kept in place for many years.The school became a co-educational grammar school for 11 to 18 year olds as a result of the Education Act 1944 and in 1968 it became a community comprehensive school.
