The school was established in 1956. It has close to a thousand students and one hundred teachers.

The school is known for its cultural diversity and aims to produce students who will become high achievers in society. The annual soccer match between the year 11 and 12s are a great example of the lively festivities that occur at the school. In 2014, due to the misbehaviour of several year 12 students, the year 11s were declared winners of the Old Trafford Cup.
