History
It opened in 2012 as part of the first wave of free schools, but has struggled to attract large numbers of students which would make it viable. It was located on the former Camborne Grammar School site.
In May 2015 the school's new sponsors – Camborne Science and International Academy – announced that it was not viable and would close.
Ofsted
In May 2015, the school had its first Ofsted inspection, when the school was adjudged to be "Requires improvement". The inspectors noted that the quality of teaching, specifically teachers’ use of assessment, was too uneven to promote consistently good progress for all students.
