Further expansion of pupil numbers and buildings continued after the Great War, but during the Second World War the College suffered more than any other comparable independent school, being twice ejected and shrinking to half its former size. Required to make way for the Admiralty between October 1939 and July 1940, it found a temporary home at Blenheim Palace. The College underwent a further period of exile from May 1942 to July 1946. Ordered out at one week's notice, the school was housed with Harrow School. The College's premises were then occupied by the Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE), and the modern Defence Research Agency is still sited on former College land.
