[edit] Overview
The South Wilford CofE Primary School begain as a Free School that was built in 1736, pursuant to the will of Mr Benjamin Carter who, in 1732, left £200 for that purpose, and bequeathed for its support and for other charitable uses, property which now produces about £220 per annum, of which £60 is paid to the master, £5 for school books, £10 to the poor of Wilford, and £20 to St Giles and St George's charity schools in London. The school clock was paid for by surplus flood aid money raised to assist Wilford in 1875. The building was substantially upgraded in 1886 and is still, in part, in use today."
Temporary buildings were added in the late 1950s. A modern school replaced the mix of buildings during 2001/2002. The new building was occupied in September 2002.
