"Inspire a generation" was the main theme from the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Following on from this, it was decided that the new names should be linked to great British Olympians. Students in each of the Colleges were asked to choose from a list of Olympic sportsmen and women.

The three Heads of College are:

Miss Leanne Cowling -

Head of Redgrave

Mrs Sara Jones -

Head of Hoy
