and vicar of St Thomas the Martyr's Church, Oxford. The original school building was Mackworth Hall, which then stood on New Inn Hall Street in central Oxford. In 1873, after a storm damaged the school buildings and in anticipation of growing numbers, A. B. Simeon, first warden, moved the school to Summertown. At the time, the site was on the boundary of Oxford and surrounded by farmland, and Simeon bought a large plot for the school. The school remains on the site today, with the Quadrangle and playing fields on opposite sides of Woodstock Road. Simeon created an

The school flourished under the guidance of warden Henry Ewing Kendall from 1925 to 1954. In the Second World War, air raid shelters were dug into the grass of the Quad. The school was presented with a stained glass window by the RAF at the end of the war in recognition of "the superb contribution to the war effort made by former pupils of the School". These included, among many others,

of 617 Squadron, who led 'The Dambusters', flying ace Douglas Bader, and Adrian Warburton, famous for his role in the defence of Malta. Pacifist inclinations during the 1970s and 1980s caused the window to be relocated, before it was put back on display in the Old Library. The window has since been moved again and can now be seen on display in the warden's dining room. The school also has a scholarship fund to assist pupils whose parents are in the armed forces. In 1982, the sixth form became co-educational. The whole school became fully co-educational in 1997.
