Sir John Port of Etwall, on his death in 1557, left funds to create a grammar school which was then established at the Repton Priory. For its first 400 years, the school accepted only boys; girls were admitted from the 1970s, and the school was fully co-educational by the 1990s.
Notable alumni, also known as "Old Reptonians", include C. B. Fry, Jeremy Clarkson, Roald Dahl, Adrian Newey, Michael Ramsey.
