Duke Town Secondary School started on May 6, 1846. It was in 1920 that the secondary school section was administered by the then colonial master's post-primary school department of the ministry of education while the primary section of the same Duke Town School remained under supervision of the Local Education Authority. It is Presbyterian mission school.
