Cressex Community School has formed a partnership with nearby Wycombe Abbey independent school, which enables pupils from both schools to work together. [3]
The school was allocated £31 million of Government funding in 2007 to completely redevelop the site, which was falling into disrepair.[4] The current site was opened in 2010.[5]
