The boys' school was located on Moss Lane, but since the merger, this site has been converted into a housing development. At the time there was quite bitter disappointment from many parents who had spent time campaigning and fund raising to build a pavilion on the fields, which was demolished to make way for the new houses. A second site, the Claremont Centre located near Sale town centre, was formerly used for sixth form teaching.SitesThe School is split into two sites: the main Marsland Road site and the Sixth Form Claremont Centre.Marsland RoadThe main Marsland Road site as it stands today consists of:  the main building, which includes the following: a three-story Science block a gym several computer suites most classrooms are fitted with interactive whiteboards the school library / learning resource centre with ICT facilities the canteen  the Maths/Art block  the Technology block  the English block  the Sports Hall. an all weather Artificial turf pitch  two fully equipped music rooms The site has extensive fields towards the rear on which two football pitches, a rugby pitch, a running track, and two sandpits are situated.
