• Overview

The original school was founded as a Central school in Scarbrook Road, Croydon, named after John Ruskin. It opened on 12 January 1920. The Lady Edridge School (later to become a grammar school in 1951) opened the same day.

Grammar school In 1935 the school moved to Tamworth Road, and in April 1945 it was granted grammar school status as the John Ruskin Grammar School for Boys (JRGS). It had been previously the John Ruskin Selective Central School. It moved to Upper Shirley Road, Shirley, in 1955, and was retitled the John Ruskin High School in 1971 before being demolished in 1991. The upper forms transferred to Selsdon to form the present John Ruskin College, utilising the premises previously known as John Newnham Secondary Selective School, named after a 20th century town clerk of the old County Borough of Croydon.
