Description

The Pocklington County Primary School as it used to be known, was erected in 1908. Additional buildings have been added since it was built, and the school is, in consequence, thoroughly up-to-date, and provides the opportunity for a sound education on modern lines.

In addition, there is also a Church of England Infant School, which accommo­dates 150 children, and a Roman Catholic School with accommodation for 50. All these schools receive children from the age of five years, and retain them until the statutory leaving age.
