Just prior to demolition, the photo was taken looking towards the boys department. Senior boys were upstairs and junior boys downstairs. The girls' department at the far end of the building was exactly the same. At this point, the school had been part of the 6th Form College.

Location
This school opened in 1906 and closed in 1974. When it was opened, the boys and girls from the Upper Grade School in Park Rd were transferred from there to the new school and for a number of years it was the Upper Grade School.
Before demolition in 2001, it was part of Hartlepool 6th Form College until 1999 and was primarily the art department. A care home has been built on the site.
