Our Heritage We can trace education in Faringdon back to 1825 when the National School for Boys opened. The first Seondary School started in the town in 1937 but it was in 1962 that Tollington Secondary Modern first moved to the current Fernham Road site. We became Faringdon Community College in 2000 and were awarded Specialist Engineering Status in 2003.
