Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: High Wycombe: Millbrook Combined School As with many schools these days this one, in Mill End Road, has had a chequered history in terms of the age group that it has served, according to the prevailing dictats of both national and local government, and the changing demographics of the local population. Consequently it has had several names thus:
1936: Mill End Secondary School (11 to 16 year old children) 1973: Sands County Middle School (8 to 12 year old children) 1998: Sands Junior School (7 to 11 year old children) 1999: Millbrook Combined School (3 to 11 year old children) It is interesting to compare the Ordnance Survey's current 1:10,000 scale map with its equivalent from 1938 showing the school as originally built. Although the basic pattern is still the same, with a few extensions added, evidently the school originally had a central segment, as long as this frontage, which has now been broken in two to create a central courtyard. The whole building is topped by the attractive central clock tower which forms the School badge. As ever it is good to report that the clock was telling the right time.
