			===The beginnings.===

			Although the school was built in 1937 it did not become a secondary modern school until 1945 under the Butler Education Act 1944 which had just come into force. The intervening years being a Senior Elemantary School called the Sprowston Central School.

			The idea was to have a tripartite system based on the results of the 11+ examination, this would act as a selection process for the pupils to enter one of three distinct education paths. Grammar schools for purely academic education, technical schools for an industry specific education, the remainder would be sent to secondary modern schools for a general education.

			This system that may have been workable in large conurbations such as London or major centres like Birmingham and Manchester however it proved anything other than on workable in provincial and mainly country areas such as Norfolk. Even this problem was exacerbated by there being a Norfolk County Council and a Norwich City Council which ran as independent authorities.

			Even on the number of pupils involved and if the tripartite system were to work the distances pupils would have to travel make such an education requirement virtually impossible and to this end secondary modern schools also took on the role of technical teaching via pupils having practical lessons.
