School Days

[smithsquared]

Found some more documents whilst clearing my late mother's bungalow, amongst them was my late father's (George Joseph Smith) school names and employment record, very interested if anyone has images of the places listed below and do any of them still exist?

School 1) Christ Church School Sparkbrook (attended 1917 to 1924)
School 2) Wakeley Road Secondary School, Small Heath (attended 1924 to 1929)

College Birmingham Central Technical College, Suffolk Street (attended 1929 to 1932)

Apprenticeship BSA Machine Tools Ltd (Aug 1929 to Aug 1932)

Fingers crossed

Hi Bob

As Terry says Christ Church was on Stratford Rd Sparkbrook, with the main bulk of the school behind in Long Street. It has now been demolished and cleared. Waverley Rd is still there I believe in Waverley Rd at the back of Small Heath Park.
