History
Three halls of the site was built in 1962 by George Wimpey as Billingham Campus on Шаблон:Convert for Teesside Education Committee. The first hall had been built in 1958. It included a five form-entry co-educational grammar-technical school, Bede Hall Grammar School (which included a sixth form), and 3 secondary modern schools 'Faraday Hall', 'Davy Hall' and 'Stephenson Hall'(an older school on Hale Road Billingham). In 1965 it was agreed to combine the whole site into one comprehensive school which took place in the early 1970s. Bede Hall Grammar school was renamed Brunner school but would later be demolished. The older building 'Stephenson Hall' became 'Bede 6th Form college'. Brunner Hall, Faraday Hall and Davy Hall became Billingham Campus, an 11-16 comprehensive school.
