The center began its activity in the 1966-1967 school year as a delegated section of the Gil y Carrasco Institute of Secondary Education in Ponferrada. In 1969-1970, it became a National Institute of Secondary Education, and in 1976-1977, the current building was inaugurated. With the LOGSE, the current IES Beatriz Ossorio emerged from the merger of the Bachillerato institute and the San Blas vocational training institute, incorporating ESO, Social Guarantee programs, and various vocational training cycles. The facilities were expanded with the building of the Manuel Fernández Public School. In 2025, the 60th anniversary of Secondary Education in Fabero will be celebrated.
