The first school on this site was Lawn School, which opened in 1964.[1] In 1965, education in Swindon was reorganised and the secondary schools became comprehensive;[2] around this time the school's name was changed to Churchfields School. In September 2011 it became Churchfields Academy.[3]
In May 2017 the school joined the Royal Wootton Bassett Academy Trust, and from September of that year its name became Lawn Manor Academy.[1]
