Parkside Middle School company history timeline

1853

The former stone school, which had been used since 1853, became a parish hall.

1909

It was officially opened on 13 September 1909 by Sir Francis Blake, 1st Baronet, of Tillmouth Park, who was then the Deputy Lieutenant of Northumberland.

1914

On 17 November 1914, the school was occupied by the British Army for use during the First World War, and thus a half-timetable was put in place.

1915

The first few years did not go well, with a focus on inspections which recorded an outbreak of scarlet fever in November 1915.

1916

No lights were allowed in the school due to the threat of Zeppelin raids, one of which occurred on 2 April 1916 over Cramlington.

1918

During the Spanish flu epidemic in 1918, teaching staff were reduced to one member of staff and average attendance to 55% due to the outbreak.

1926

During the 1926 general strike, it was noted by an inspector that many children had inadequate footwear due to the poverty caused by their parents suffering ten days away from work.

1939

In the first week of September 1939, part of the school was taken over as a military hospital and air raid shelters were built on the school fields.

1977

In 1977, it was considered significant to record in the logs that the school was renting a video recorder for the first time.

2008

The school was closed on 21 July 2008 and its pupils transferred to Cramlington Learning Village, ending a 99-year history of education at the same site.
