The Great Barr National School
1856 - 1893


This list was donated to me by Robert Deloyde, who extracted it from the committee book
for the Great Barr National school for the period 1856 to 1893.
It gives a glimpse of what life was like for the school in those days.
There is a mention of three schools the Boys, The Girls, & the Addyes School.
This was a charity school in today's modern word they would not be classed as schools
but classrooms because there were not that many children in the schools.
The School was founded in 1856
I regret that I cannot supply any additional information on this listing, which is
provided for your information and as a guide for further research
