School Records

Born a Brummie
My Mother was born 1917 and lived in Nechells until she was about 11 when her parents moved to Ward End. She never spoke a lot about her past but I remember her saying that she went to Leigh Road School.

Are there any records of pupils attending there that far back? Also what school would she have gone to in Nechells? She lived at 87 Cattells Grove Nechells.

many thanks
 
If I remember correctly these would be subject to the 100 year rule. That is they are to remain closed for 100 years after the record so you would not be able to access then yet. If they are available then I think it would be at Birmingham library.

Many thanks Janice for your reply ....................... I guess Mother's school history will remain a secret :(
