It was founded as a charity school in 1842. The school's current building is its third home, having moved to a new building in 1876 and to the present site in 1937.
The school has a playground on each side. Prior to the 1960s the school was infants only, aged 5 – 7. The Junior School was adjacent, a Church of England school called St George's School. St George's had no playground and shared the Fox School playgrounds. During the Second World War, pupils from the school were evacuated and taught at Lacock Abbey, Wiltshire.
The school will soon have a large addition to their land, expected to be completed in 2016. The school is also considering an alliance with Ashburnham Community School.
