History
The school opened on 12 July 2010, and it was created under the Building Schools for the Future programme[1] to replace The George Ward Technology College.
At first a community school administered by Wiltshire Council, Melksham Oak Community School converted to academy status in April 2015. The school continues to coordinate with Wiltshire Council for admissions.
In August 2018, the school became part of the White Horse Federation, a multi-academy trust which runs primary and secondary schools in Wiltshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire.[2]

gollark: ... how?
gollark: What would it *do*?
