The school was founded in 1973 by the permission of Government and the first students graduated in 1976. The school building was completed in 1976 and in 1985 the building was extended. In 1980 the Ministry of Education gave its permanent support to the school. In the 1990's the school got more versatile adding a bit fun along the schoolwork, for example field and school trips. Little by little the school has developed to its current form; a non-graded upper secondary school. The school moved to a new building on the first of December 2008 to have bigger and more modern premises.
