From the Coalbrookdale and Ironbridge CofE Primary School
Our school's history dates back more than 200 years to the height of the industrial revolution, when the Gorge was at the epicentre.
Four schools evolved throughout the course of these two centuries and eventually merged to form Coalbrookdale & Ironbridge C.E. (Aided) School.
The Coalbrookdale High School, housed in our beautiful Edwardian school building, first welcomed students on September 11, 1911.
Up until their merger in 1932, the schools were single-gender and fee-paying. Scholarship exams were instituted in 1944.
Nearly three times as many students attended the school in 1961 with over 400 students enrolled. As a result, the school was merged with Madeley Modern School in 1965 and moved to its current location at Abraham Darby Academy in 1968.
After the former schools had merged, the structure was reopened three years later as Coalbrookdale & Ironbridge C of E Primary School.
The Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Hereford officially opened the "new Church aided" Primary School on May 19, 1972, with 99 students.
Little has changed since this building's doors originally opened 100 years ago in this regard.
We try to develop a unique culture that is really inviting, comforting, and loving as a Church school.
From the beginning of mass education, the English educational system was developed in collaboration with the Christian churches.
Although the state now oversees education, the church still owns our school facilities through the Hereford Diocesan Board of Education.
