The new 750 pupil St Thomas of Aquin's High School was opened in August 2002. It was built on the site of the old school following closure of the building in 1998 as it had become unsuitable to meet safety,security and curriculum requirements. It could also not be converted to support the integration of pupils with special needs.
The school community expressed a strong desire to remain on the existing city-centre site rather than go to a new 'greenfield' location, due to strong historical links with the area and the adjacent convent.
