"My Alma Mater"

I really should have worked harder. They really need to get the clock working again!

 

The school moved here from central Liverpool in about 1907. The old building is now a cultural arts centre and well worth a visit.

 

Orginally the girls would make the unifiorms, the boys the shoes. In my time it was boys only but now is once again co-educational. It still seems strange to see girls wearing the Bluecoat blazer.

 

The Liverpool Blue Coat School is a grammar school in Wavertree, Liverpool, England. It was founded in 1708 by Bryan Blundell and the Reverend Robert Stythe as the Liverpool Blue Coat Hospital and was for many years a boys' boarding school before reverting in September 2002 to its original coeducational remit.
