Wellsway School was established in 1971, by amalgamating Keynsham Grammar School and Wellsway County Secondary School both of which opened on a shared site in the mid-fifties.
Further developments have taken place on the school site including a new art block, drama studio, science labs, Sixth Form areas, Staff Centre, Languages Building, extension to Technology and an all weather pitch, completed in 2005. A new sports centre is currently being constructed and is due for completion in September 2011.
