History of the School
The history of the school began over a hundred years ago, when the church of St Matthias stood on the site of the infant playground. A small choir school for boys was open as a Day school on 9th February 1874. Fields surrounded the church and school and Warwick Lane (now Warwick Road) was lined with trees. Towards the end of the 19th century, houses were built on the fields and a new school building was required. It was opened in April 1899 at the cost of £6000. During the last war the Church of St Matthias was bombed but remained until the fifties.
