Durham Sixth Form Centre was built in 1913 as a girls’ grammar school and converted into a sixth form in 1983. The original school building has been significantly added to and now includes a science block, 210-seat theatre, plus three centres for resources, visual arts and leisure. Plans to further extend the school are ongoing.
