TETBURY ST. MARY'S C. of E. PRIMARY SCHOOL

Catalogue Ref. S328/2

   St Mary's Church of England Primary School, Tetbury, Gloucestershire

   [from Administrative History]  St Mary's C. of E. School was founded in 1836 as a Boys' School and enlarged in 1851 with the establishment of Girls' and Infants' Schools. The Junior Mixed School, formed in 1952, moved to a new site in 1968. The Infant and Junior Schools amalgamated to form the Primary School in 1992. The separate schools appear to have shared a single governing body.
