Rawlins School panoramic photograph, 1931

This 'whole school' photograph was taken at Rawlins School in July 1931. At this time the school was not only co-educational, but also took primary age children.
The photograph shows 86 pupils and six teachers - very different to today (2025) with over 1500 pupils.
