The Cherwell School is a secondary school with academy status on the Marston Ferry Road in Oxford, England. The current school site was built in 1963 as a secondary modern school, later becoming the main comprehensive school for North Oxford, with a catchment area extending down to the city centre, Grandpont, and New Hinksey. Along with later expansions, in 2003, and as part of a citywide reorganisation, it merged with the Frideswide Middle School, and is now a split site school of c.2,000 pupils aged between 11 and 18.^[1]^[2] The Cherwell School is part of River Learning Trust.^[3]

Changes

The north site has undergone construction work, with the extension of the sixth form common room. The original design, to accommodate only 100 pupils in years 12 and 13, became inadequate in recent years for the 300 or more pupils currently in the sixth form.^{[citation needed]}^[when?] A notable change to the north site of the Cherwell School is the creation of female-only toilets located by the music block – previously, only unisex toilets being available.^{[citation needed]}^[when?]

The main building work was the construction of a new building alongside the existing block, and then removing the internal wall to create a much larger space. On the second floor of the structure, the school library has been extended to include quiet study areas, each with computer and desk facilities.^{[citation needed]}^[when?]
