History
Dartmouth High School opened in September 1964 as a secondary modern school, becoming comprehensive in September 1969.
It became Q3 Academy in September 2008. In August 2008, the project to rebuild the school began. It took 21 months to build, and was ready for students in April 2010, straight after the Easter Holiday. The old building is now demolished and the final landscaping phase is taking place. The whole project should be completed by September 2010.

—David Hume (1711–1776)
“History, as an entirety, could only exist in the eyes of an observer outside it and outside the world. History only exists, in the final analysis, for God.”
