  • School Timetables for Various Parishes in the East Riding of Yorkshire
    School timetables for various parishes in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Transcription by Lisa Blosfelds, © 2014 CCER/5/1/1 This document comprises Education Department reports carried out on schools on account of the 1902 Education Act which brought the old Board Schools founded as a result of the 1870 Education Act and run independently by local Boards, under the control of the Local Education Authorities of the towns nearest to them. The data provided for each school varies from a simple form which was filled in, to fuller more detailed information regarding syllabus, timetables etc. The schools included in the document are: Atwick, Asselby and Barmby Marsh, Blacktoft, Broomfleet, Bubwith, Burstwick cum Skeckling, Burton Fleming, Cottingham and Dunswell, East Cottingwith, Eastrington, Fridaythorpe, Great Driffield, Hedon, Hemingbrough, Holme on Spalding Moor and Foggathorpe, Holmpton, Hutton Cranswick, Keyingham, Langtoft, Langton, Melbourne, Newport Wallingfen, Owthorn, Preston, Reighton, Rillington, Scalby, Skerne, South Duffield, Spaldington, Thorngumbald, Thwing, Walkington, Willerby, Withernwick, Wold Newton, and Yeddingham. The timetable for Reighton school is not given, nor are those for Burton Fleming and Wold Newton, the nearest villages to it on which reports are included in the file. The nearest school whose timetable is given is Langtoft, but the school there was considerably larger than that at Reighton and therefore its timetable is unlikely to bear much similarity. Because of this I have added the timetables for the schools at Atwick and Barmby Marsh which were much closer to Reighton in size and are more likely to give an idea of what the timetable would have been like there.
