Thank you very much for the names of the schools. I really appreciate the help. In your second reply I think the first part is from a school record file. Is that right? If so, would you mind telling me where you found it?

Thank you for all the rest of the information in your second reply.

Hello

I would like to find school records for some of my family members from 1920-1930. Can anyone tell me the names of the schools that a child in Woolaston, Tidenham or Chepstow would have attended at that time?

Also, what is the best place to find these records?

Thanks for your help!

Sylvia
