Christ College had used the premises formerly occupied by St Benedict's from 1962 to 2007 which had been Catholic secondary School in Cheltenham. The opportunity of having a newly built school on the site of Kingsmead School formerly occupied by Arle School from 1959 to 1995 Kingsmead was closing due to falling numbers having been in special measures[5] and turning the school into an academy justified making a fresh start with a new name. The school has room to educate 1150 students aged 11–18 and the school's specialisms will be science and sport.[6]
All Saints' Academy was rated good after an Ofsted inspection in late 2018.
In May 2010, an Anglo-Saxon settlement was discovered on the site.[3]
