Paulsgrove Primary School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paulsgrove Primary School , a Full Service Extended School[1] serving the same-named community [2] situated to the north-west of Portsea Island, stands on the site of three schools built in 1950[3] , and opened by the Lord Mayor of Portsmouth (England), Sir Denis Daley on 24th October[4] that year. Originally consisting of an infant school and two junior schools,one for boys and one for girls [5], this was reversed in 1966 to two infant schools (Hillview and Castle View) and one junior (Hillside). Between 1975 to 1993 the schools changed their age of transfer from 7 to 8 and 11 to 12. In 1993 the three schools amalgamated to become Paulsgrove Primary. The school now includes a Children's Centre and the current head teacher is Mr Darren Nickerson. His predecessors include Mrs Sue Tunmore, Mrs Anna Curtis, Miss Jill King and Mr Len Vine
