The school was established in 1955, and the author and folklorist Roy Palmer was headmaster of the school from 1972 to 1983. Later, the school gained specialist status as a Technology College and was renamed Dame Elizabeth Cadbury Technology College.

Previously a foundation school administered by Birmingham City Council, in October 2016 Dame Elizabeth Cadbury Technology College converted to academy status and was renamed Dame Elizabeth Cadbury School. The school is now sponsored by the Matrix Academy Trust.

The sixth form provision is offered as part of the 'Oaks Sixth Form College', a consortium of 7 secondary schools in South-West Birmingham.[2]

The new logo was based on the other members of the matrix trust academy; like Bloxwich academy.
