In 1979 our school began life, with a small intake of foundation students and staff, as Melton Technical School. Originally only consisting of portable buildings, founding Principal Jack Cunningham and his school council worked hard to ensure permanent building were constructed. In the 1990’s there ceased to be a distinction between Technical Schools and High Schools. Melton Technical College was renamed Wilson Park Secondary College. In the early 2000’s the school was again renamed as Staughton College.
