The Addey and Stanhope School was created through the union of two institutions.
The Addey School was established in 1821, and The Stanhope School in 1715.
The Stanhope School closed after the 1870 Education Act, when the government assumed control of basic education, and its governors made the decision to utilise the money to send a few students to other schools.
The governors of the Addey School determined in 1891 that their institution was no longer required, and the two sets of governors decided to collaborate in 1894 to establish the Addey and Stanhope School for Art and Science.
In 1900, the school relocated to its current location.
Since Addey and Stanhope is a voluntary aided institution, the Governors are also the legal owners of the property and employers of the personnel.
Building on this lengthy and illustrious past, the school now concentrates on the current needs of the neighbourhood.
