In 2013 the school, then named Harris School, was placed in special measures after an Ofsted report deemed it "Inadequate". It converted to Academy status on 1 January 2014 and changed to its current name. Harris School is now no longer under special measures.
Now Harris is repeatedly over subscribed and rated as one of the best non-grammar secondary schools in the area of Warwickshire. Results in the drama, business and English department are consistently high as a result in the reform in leadership from 2012.
