The building was completed, according to the large stone carved table on the south wall, as the "Stoke Poges and Wexham Elementary Schools 1878". It is a Grade II Listed Building and the English Heritage website describes it thus:- "Red brick and stone with blue bands in gables and plain tile roofs. Main south front with boys entry to left, girls to right. Two main gables with tall pointed stone windows. Central section with 2 gables with pointed head 3-light mullion and transom windows and 3-light mullioned window each side. To right is pointed arched door with 3-light window over and a half-hipped bell gable above." Following a reorganization of school facilities in Stoke Poges the building was taken over by the Fulmer Education Trust and re-opened in 2005 as Sefton Park School, providing independent full-time education for pupils aged from eleven to eighteen, underpinned by a Christian ethos based on the Holy Bible.
