Originally established as a Grammar School in 1922, it became a comprehensive school in 1973 and was initially managed by Derbyshire County Council. In April 2016, the school transitioned to academy status and joined the Two Counties Trust. Despite its academy status, Swanwick Hall School continues to work with Derbyshire County Council on admissions, maintaining a coordinated approach to student enrolment.

Makers Construction were selected to undertake the 172m² liquid waterproofing works on the five flat roofs of the Assembly Hall. The historic building had been closed to students for over two years due to significant water ingress caused by damaged roofs. Inspections revealed that sections of the guttering had completely broken off, leading to extensive ponding. Additionally, on some roofs, the accumulation of vegetation had blocked the outlets, preventing water from draining properly. This project aimed to restore the integrity of the roof and protect the building from further damage.
