User Guide 15E - Schools - South Tyneside
Revised April 2004

This User Guide outlines the records held relating to individual schools in South Tyneside. Separate User Guides are available for records of schools in City of Sunderland (15A), Gateshead MBC (15B), North Tyneside MBC (15C) and Newcastle City (15D).

This User Guide is not a comprehensive list of all references to individual schools. The records included here are those normally maintained by the schools themselves and "strays" which are part of collections not associated with education in South Tyneside.

References to individual schools will also be found in School Board and Education Committees' records. Education Departments of local authorities often maintained files on individual schools and groups of schools such as Multilateral Units, as do some Administrative or Legal Departments. Plans and planning applications may be found in the records of Local Authority Engineers, Surveyors, Planning or Architects Departments. [See User Guide 13]

Finally, Police and Fire Authority records may contain reports on incidents of vandalism, fires etc.

NB Records less than 30 years old are not normally available for consultation without permission. In addition, Admissions Registers are closed for 75 years and Punishment Books for 100 years.

Please note also, it is not normally possible to produce unlisted collections for consultation in the Search Room.

Where records have been classified, the classmark appears in brackets after the name of the school.
