Originally, the school catered for pupils from the ages of five to fourteen until 1958 when it was decided that 248 senior pupils (aged 11 - 15) should attend a newly created secondary school in Eastleigh. The new school was known as the Eastleigh Secondary School, but the Headmaster, Robert Blachford, replaced this with the distinctive name of Wyvern, and the motto "Advance".
