It is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference, The Independent Association of Preparatory Schools, and the Independent Schools Council.

Hill House School was founded in Doncaster as a preparatory school for boys in 1912 by Reginald Master. In 1959, Paula Haigh, the wife of the then Headmaster of Hill House School, Mr Hamilton Haigh, founded St Mary's School on Bawtry Road as a girls' school. In the early 1970s under a new head, Hill House began to accept girls, and by the early 1980s had become fully co-educational. Hill House St Mary's School was born when the two schools merged in August 2002, with primary-age children being taught at the Rutland Street site, overlooking Doncaster's Town Fields, and with secondary-age children taught at the St Mary's site on Bawtry Road.

In September 2008, Hill House School, reverting to its former name, relocated to the Officers’ Quarters of former RAF Finningley, previous home to Britain's Vulcan bombers, adjacent to the modern Robin Hood Airport. In an £8 million project, led by Cadman Construction, the school now has numerous purpose-built classrooms allied to historic function rooms. In September 2011, Hill House opened its new Sixth Form and Music School in a £1.1 million development, and was accepted into membership of the Society of Heads. Since 2010, Hill House has been home to the Robin Hood Music and Drama Festival, which takes place in April each year. In 2012, the school acquired 54 acres of land in nearby Blaxton, which has been developed into sports grounds. In September 2015, the school's Paver Astroturf Hockey Pitch was opened by Olympic Gold Medallist Imran Sherwani, and in April 2017, the school's new Dining Hall was opened. In August 2021, the school celebrated record examination results and Oxbridge admissions. In February 2023, the school's new £1 million sports pavilion was opened at Blaxton Sports Grounds by the international netball player Tracey Neville. In November 2024, the school opened New Court, including its Art School, Music School, Mathematics Department and Fitness Centre. In December 2024, Hill House was named 'Independent Secondary School of the Year, North' for 2025 by the Sunday Times.

The main catchment area includes Tickhill, Bawtry, Epworth, Doncaster, Rotherham, Howden, Selby, Pontefract, Retford & Worksop, all of which are served by school transport.
