Welcome to The Prescotian! The
Prescotian was founded in May, 2000. Its enduring
aim is to conserve the heritage of Prescot
Grammar School, Prescot Girls Grammar School and
Prescot School. |
|
| Prescot Grammar was founded in 1544
and is the second oldest grammar school in the
country. The Prescot Girls Grammar School opened
in 1955. As part of the drive to comprehensive
education took place, the two schools dropped the
term "grammar" from their names. |
|
| By 1976, both grammar schools became
fully comprehensive on the two sites. However,
after arson attacks on the boys' campus, the
schools merged to form Prescot School in the late
seventies at the girls campus. |
|
| The boys campus was sold for housing
development. In 2009, after 465 years, Knowsley
Council summarily dismissed the school history as
it replaced it with the new Knowsley Park Centre
for Learning! |
