Built in 1963 on a former field called Creek Bottom according to Ovingdean's 1839 tithe map. The school's catchment area includes Rottingdean, Saltdean, Ovingdean, Woodingdean and since the closure of Stanley Deason in 2005 those of the Whitehawk and Manor Hill estates which give it an interesting mix to say the least. Despite being located in the old parish of Ovingdean its current address is Rottingdean though the houses behind are officially in the former.
