The first school to be built on the site of Twickenham School was named Whitton School. It was established in 1959, to cater for boys from the former Kneller School and girls from Stanley Road School. By 2001, the school buildings at Whitton, and other local schools, were considered inadequate for a modern education system. In 2003, plans were put forward for it to be replaced by a Catholic Secondary School, with a new community school to be built on the site of Heathfield School, but these were not progressed. The school was considered for rebuilding under the national BSF programme in 2007, but only one school in the borough could be selected and Teddington School was chosen instead. Whitton School was later re-built as part of the next Government's sponsored academies programme, becoming Twickenham Academy in 2010, under the governance of the Learning Schools Trust. Twickenham Academy was closed at the end of October 2016 and was replaced by Twickenham School on the first day of November 2016, under the management of Richmond West Schools Trust. It moved to the larger Bourne Trust in September 2021.
