The beauty of the School's historic buildings and its proximity to and association with the Abbey give an immediate indication of its long history. Indeed the year 948 has been taken as the likeliest date of its first foundation by Abbot Wulsin. By 1100 the School had built for itself such a high reputation, that the renowned Norman scholar, Geoffrey de Gorham, applied for the post of Master. In fact he was later to become Abbot of St Albans and the School then remained under the control of the Abbot until the dissolution of the monasteries in 1539.
