In September 1972, Bede Hall Grammar became comprehensive although the remaining four grammar years remained so. The school was renamed Brunner.[2][clarification needed] Davy and Faraday merged into one school named Furness. Stephenson closed and became Bede College the pupils transferring to Furness or the newly opened Northfield school.
