Low Moor Edgbaston School of Domestic Science Hagley Road

In the 1920s and the 1930s the School was offering all aspects of domestic science to examination level. I was wondering how this was funded. Maybe households/hotels etc sponsored their staff to attend. Or did the student/worker have to fund their own training ?

I wonder if it was a forerunner of my old college, Birmingham College of Food and Domestic Arts?
This seems possible. the college closed during he war, but was reopened at new premises (144 Hagley Road)( in 194 and taken ovewr by council in 1953
