History

The school was established in 1972 as Daubeney Middle School, a middle school for ages 9–13, named after the Manor of Kempston Daubeney (named after Sir Giles Daubeney and his descendants). It converted to an academy in April 2012 and renamed Daubeney Academy. It became a secondary school after changing its age range to 11–16 following a three-year transition that began in 2017.[5][6]
