In 1703, Josiah Bacon, founded the school that became Bacon's College.
Founded in 1703 by Josiah Bacon, a fellmonger, its first location was above the porch of St Mary Magdalen, Bermondsey, as Bacon's School. It was relocated to nearby Grange Road in 1860 and was subsequently relocated in 1962 to Pages Walk as a mixed secondary modern school. As part of the development of Docklands area of Rotherhithe it became a CTC in a new campus. The college enjoyed its tercentenary in 2003, and held a Founder's Day service in St Paul's Cathedral to celebrate the event. Normally its Founder's Day service is held at Southwark Cathedral.
Bacon's College opened on its current Rotherhithe site in 1991, moving from its old building in Bermondsey. Bacon's College is a 11–19 Church of England school sponsored by United Learning. The College opened in 1991 in the heart of London Docklands with a new building. Every year 180 students are admitted into the Academy.
Students of Bacon's College can use Bacon's College Community Centre, which includes a third generation astroturf football pitch, outdoor netball and tennis courts, indoor cricket nets, and a sports hall. The centre is available for private hire for weddings and conferences.
