Kelvin Hall School is a co-educational secondary school located in Kingston upon Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England.[1]
History
It opened as Kelvin Hall, Bricknell High School in 1959, and was a technical school. Kelvin Hall was operated separately to Wyke Hall (now Wyke College) and Bricknell High School, which were located on the same campus and was a secondary modern school. Kelvin Hall later took over the whole campus and became a comprehensive school. The school relocated to new buildings on the same site in 2012.[2]
It was previously a foundation school administered by Hull City Council and the West Hull Co-operative Learning Trust.[3]
A new trust named Yorkshire and the Humber Co-operative Learning Trust (YHCLT) was formed on 14 September 2016, and sponsored Kelvin along with multiple other schools, taking the place of the West Hull Co-operative Learning Trust.
In November 2016, Kelvin Hall School converted to academy status, and the trust was renamed to Thrive Co-operative Learning Trust on 12 August 2021.[4]
