Viewed across Old School Lane near the corner of Horsecastles in May 2015. The former school has been converted to residential use. The school is now located at the extreme western edge of Sherborne at the end of Lenthay Road. The school relocated in 2000, for various reasons, including increasing pupil numbers, inadequate facilities here, and child & traffic safety. VC in the school name indicates a Voluntary Controlled school, which must provide for all pupils to take part in a daily act of collective worship, which must reflect the broad traditions of Christian belief and be wholly Christian in character.
