History

Roxeth Manor Secondary Modern School opened on the site in Eastcote Lane in the 1930s, next to the primary school. Additional buildings were added in the 1960s. The secondary school was renamed Rooks Heath in September 1974 when the London Borough of Harrow adopted the comprehensive system of education. The school gained specialist status as a Business and Enterprise College, before converting to academy status in August 2011.[1]
