History

Grammar school

The site was formerly Esher County Grammar School which moved there in 1965, having been established as Surbiton County Grammar in the 1920s. The original Surbiton site is now occupied by the Hollyfield School.

Sixth form college

The transformation into a sixth form college began in 1974 with the last intake of grammar school pupils. It became a wholly sixth form college in 1979, by which time it was known as Esher College and had approximately 1000 students. It has since expanded, and the 2021 prospectus describes the college as 'a community of over 1900 full-time students'.

16-19 Academy

It became a 16-19 Academy in September 2019 and changed its name to 'Esher Sixth Form College' [1]
