In the most recentOfsted inspection, the school was graded as "outstanding" in all areas.[3] It now has over 1700 male and female pupils aged 11–18 (Years 7–13), with around 330 students in the sixth form.

In 1976, Bishop Simpson Church of England Girls School amalgamated with St Joseph’s Catholic (mixed) School to create St Bede’s School. The school was the first voluntary-aided jointChurch of England andRoman Catholic school to be established in Britain.[1] Initially the school was split between three different sites in the town, but in December 1986, a grant of £1.9M was awarded to enable all teaching to be carried out at a single location.[4][5] Two new buildings were constructed at the Carlton Road site, officially opened in March 1990 byRonald Bowlby, theAnglican Bishop of Southwark, andCormac Murphy-O'Connor, theRoman Catholic Bishop of Arundel and Brighton.[6]
Between 1988 and 1999 the school underwent large-scale building works to bring the school together on its present site, and to create new facilities for a library,ICT and careers. In 2004 a new arts centre was opened and in 2006 a sports hall was opened.[7] Starting in 2018, construction began to expand the school's capacity.[8]
