Originally called Rutland Sixth Form College, it was built on the site of the former Rutland Girls' Grammar School. It was incorporated into Tresham College in August 2000, changing its name to Rutland College.
In 2009 Tresham Institute announced its intention to withdraw from Oakham. Tresham sold the existing buildings and land, leaving the local community to find a new site and the capital to build a new 16-19 college. In autumn 2009 Rutland County Council announced that Casterton Business and Enterprise College (an 11-16 community college) would take responsibility, in partnership with the County Council and Tresham, for managing the college and would provide 100 sixth form places at its Great Casterton site in addition to Oakham. The second phase of the proposal included moving to a new site and in November 2010 it was announced that the College would relocate to occupy the former EEF Conference Centre in Barleythorpe in September 2012.
It has been demolished since this visit
