It is owned by the Marr Trust and is operated by South Ayrshire Council which was transferred to then Strathclyde Regional Council in 1975, with South Ayrshire Council being responsible for the school's educational provision.[3] The school was gifted to the town of Troon by Charles Kerr Marr.[4]
Throughout 2016-2017, it underwent extensive restoration, including a new building extending from the original school building.[5] In 2022, 1046 pupils attended Marr College.[6]
In 2023, Marr College was ranked as the 70th best-performing state school in Scotland, a drop from 68th in the 2022 rankings.[7] Despite this, Marr College outperformed other secondary schools in South Ayrshire and is regarded as the best-performing secondary school in South Ayrshire.[8]
