Opened in 1879; closed just before the Centenary, in 1976. Within the first ten years, attendance had soared to over 1,000. This school was on the corner of Clint Rd and Solon St. Board school. Over 1,200 average attendance in the 1890s. Fabulous photos from the late 1910s and early 1920s were provided by Ron JOHNSON, whose Mum Florence Mary MACHIN attended the school.

Another pupil was Norman BRIDGE, whose mother taught there in the late 1910s. Head at the time was Mr CLARKE. The school ran special coaching groups for the scholarship, which was taken at Oulton Secondary School in Clarence St. Norman passed the scholarship, and won the reading prize as well! Norman went on to the Liverpool Institute.

Kay WILLIAMS (1930s & ’40s) and Val GARNER (from the 1960s). Sadly, Mabel LEE and Margaret BANKS from Kay’s photos were killed when a land mine fell on Ernest Brown Tech.

Clint Road  C P  School 2

 The school closed in 1976 when it amalgamated with Edge Hill Infants to form the new Kensington Primary School. At that time the Headteachers were Mrs J M MURPHY (Juniors - went to Kensington) and Miss M NEAL (Infants).

The building was demolished after closure, but Val has provided these photos (above and below) for us.

Bill GARD attended from 1937-1943. Head of Infants was Miss PYE and Head of Boys Mr ASCROFT. Bill also remembers Miss CLARKE, an Australian teacher. Bill has sent these photos over from Canada. Thanks again, Bill
