School Reorganisation

Local School List
Baildon Church of England Primary School
Coverdale Way, Baildon, Shipley, West Yorkshire, BD17 6TE
The school has its own website here.
The Church School dates back to the 1850s when it was situated next to the parish church of St John, Hallcliffe in Baildon. In 1967 the school expanded and moved to a new building in Jenny Lane. Locally it was known as Jenny Lane School. For several years the reception class was still at the Church Hall. The playground for the Hallcliffe school was across the road from the church hall in what is now (2007) the Hallcliffe Gardens
In September 2001, under Bradford’s School Reorganisation, the school changed its status to that of Primary School and expanded to include years 5 and 6, up to 11 years old. Extensive refurbishments were carried out on the former Ladderbanks Middle School building on Coverdale Way to allow the Baildon Church of England Primary School to move in. The site at Coverdale Way is at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in extensive grounds.
