The borough turned the house into a school and in 1931, the first pupils passed through its doors as Tapton House Central Selective School. After the Second World War it became a co-educational grammar school, Tapton House Grammar School. The school continued to teach students until 1993 when it closed. After refurbishment in September 1994 it became a College of Further and Higher Education for the people of Chesterfield and the surrounding area, known as The Tapton House Campus of Chesterfield College. The College returned the building to the Borough Council in 2018. It is currently rented out as office space. [Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapton_House ]
