The school is over 630 years old and was originally set up as a school for the poor attached to Evesham's Benedictine Abbey. The school is named after Prince Henry, the brother of King Charles I who the Vicar of Evesham, Dr Lewis Bayley had previously taught and secured an endowment from for the school and the town of Evesham through a new town charter, which mentioned a "Free Grammar School of Prince Henry in Evesham".
