Moulton School & Science College is a secondary school with academy status located in the village of Moulton, Northamptonshire. Formerly known as Moulton School, the founding Headmaster was Leslie Alfred Scott (1914-1999) who was Headmaster from 1954 until his retirement in 1979. He established the school motto - "Fill the Unforgiving Minute" - from Kipling's If. He also established the first house system (Hilary, Bannister, Fleming and Whittle) and created the school crest. After Scott retired in 1979 the house system was changed and 2 new houses were added, Scott and Petit. The school currently[when?] has 1352 students on roll, including the sixth form, and 135 teachers. It is a school for ages 11–18. The school was granted specialist Science College status in 2002, and this was re-designated in 2007.[citation needed]
The current[when?] Headteacher is Mr Trevor Jones. The school used to separate the students into four different houses: Holdenby, Althorp, Rockingham, and Sulgrave. They had different colour ties to represent them: blue for Althorp, green for Holdenby, red for Rockingham and yellow for Sulgrave, but now they have year groups as of 7 September 2012 which the classes are in each year are separated from A-H instead of 1&2 in each house. The colours for each year are, Gold for Year 7, Blue for Year 8, Green for Year 9, White for Year 10 and black for Year 11.
