Description:After WW1 education improved considerably and Tamworth girls now had science laboratories and the range of educational subjects was much wider.
The school was officially opened by the Countess Ferrers on October 1, 1913. In attendance was Rev William MacGregor, one of Tamworth's benefactors.The school flourished until 1959, when it was amalgamated with the Queen Elizabeth Grammar School in Upper Gungate. Shortly afterwards, the old Salters Lane buildings took on a new lease of life as Marmion Junior School, remaining in educational use until 1998 when the school closed and the buildings were eventually demolished to make way for a new housing development.
