Great Walsingham School
Great Walsingham had it's own school when on the 15th March 1875 a school board was convened and school
and master's house were erected at an outlay of £670 in that same year for 90 children - William Grant the master and Mrs Grant the mistress.
In 1883 the Board consisted of the Rev. J. Lee-Warner (chairman), and Messrs. J. J. Cornish, G. Wright, J. Howell and E. Fisher and R. Cowburn.
It was partially rebuilt in 1911.
Before the war it was used for cookery lessons (girls with Miss Tyrell)
and woodworking classes (boys) once a week
the children registered at the Wells Road school before walking to Great Walsingham
There was also a school known as the Sanctuary School located at what was previously the Old Vicarage (Sue Ryders) on Scarborough Road.
In 1940 Quinton Hall School in Harrow evacuated some of their boys to Walsingham. The younger boys lived at the school whilst the oldeer boys lived at the Friary.
