Opened in September 1912 as The County School, Whitby, the College began life as a co-educational grammar school, with about 300 pupils. In 1972, it received its first comprehensive intake and a new name - Whitby School. At this time, students also began to transfer at age 14, rather than age 11 as in the past. In 1993, we became Whitby Community College.
A school with a positive, welcoming, warm atmosphere, in which students take pride in their achievements. Where we ensure each individual pupil achieves academically through consistently good teaching, in an environment that seeks to nurture their love of learning and challenges them to excel.
