A new Secondary Modern School for both boys and girls was opened on this estate in 1959.
Its records were received by our office in July 1987, as part of accession 2691, and include log books, attendance registers, photographs, scrapbooks, absent notes and newspaper cuttings.
The school was established to replace the Abbey School in Dorchester; for a brief history of the school there and a catalogue of its records, see under reference S87.
Catalogued by Mark Priddey, May 1994.
