New plans were drawn in 1952, and excavation of the site started in 1954. During excavations, the skeleton of an Iron Age man was found, who was nicknamed Septimus because he was discovered on the seventh day of the seventh month. Septimus was rumoured to have been part of former Anglo Saxon tribes and it was later discovered that he died of malaria.
Roman building remains were also found in the grounds before the school opened on 17 September 1956, with 300 pupils, 18 teachers and 12 classrooms.
