Further Information

The school was founded by David Jardine, a wealthy Victorian merchant who made his fortune in China and the Far East. He bequeathed £1000 for the education of poor children in Applegarth, his native parish.

In more recent times the school has undergone an extensive refurbishment, and was formally re-opened after this work by Richard Greenhow O.B.E. Chairman of the Education Committee on 8 September 1994.

Pupils attending the school coming from out-with the catchment area utilise private transport. Currently, other pupils who live within the school catchment area are provided with transport in the form of two buses.
