Originally known as Garston Wesleyan School. Liverpool Record Office holds records for this school from 1871. 

The Infants’ School is in Southbank Rd, Garston (right and below). Opened in 1938.

Records for Duncombe Rd (now the Junior School, above and right) date from 1909. I recently photographed this school, which had a number of different entrances including this one, which caught my eye, for ‘Domestic Science’. This shows the building’s history as Senior Girls’ school. Head in the late 1940s / early 1950s was Miss Baldwin, who always wore purple or grey. Mavis SMITH (nee CAMPBELL) sent in the picture of girls from Duncombe Rd below.

Senior boys were taught at Heath Rd (right), which opened in 1929. The first Headteacher was Mr A J MASON, the second was R S SIMPSON and the third Norman BRIDGE. Other teachers there in the 1960s were Jim NORRIS (Deputy Head) and John HAMILTON (Science) who went on to become a local councillor. Heath Rd became New Heys in the comprehensive reorganisation of 1967, amalgamating with Gilmour Girls and New Heys Girls, Mather Avenue.
