The school ran into financial difficulties in the early 20th century and was taken over by Lancashire Education Committee in 1908. A new school was built on Church Lane on seven acres of land bought from the Earl of Derby and opened on 6 September 1913. The school catered for both boys and girls until 1937 when a separate girls' school was opened on Higher Lane. The boys' school continued to develop with 700 pupils on roll and eventually became part of Bury College and was demolished in 2001. Some believe Robert Clive had links with the school in his early years. Accounts suggest that the Old Standians’ Association began attempts to link Clive to the school some time around 1907. Sir Colvin Bayley (the grandson of Clive’s uncle) stated at a school event that he had been informed Clive had attended the school, prior to living in Hope Hall in Eccles. However, this link has been queried, as even as Bayley admitted, there is no mention of it in any records. Despite this, the Old Standians' Association erected a bronze plaque and named one of the school's houses in his honour in 1913.Some of the alternative rock band Elbow met whilst studying at Stand College in the 1990s.
