Description

The origin of the City of Bath Technical School can be traced back to an educational establishment founded in the early 19th century. It obtained its official name when technical schools were formally introduced in Bath between the years 1892-96. Along with many other fledgling schools it was located in a new extension of the Guildhall, Bath, within the ceremonial county of Somerset, England. The school was transformed in the early 20th century, when it was combined with several other institutions, and evolved through various sites and roles until its closure at Brougham Hayes, Lower Oldfield Park in 1973 after being renamed in 1971 as Culverhay School.Chronology19th CenturyThe City of Bath Technical School has a complex history. Its evolution into a specialist school stems from early experiments in Technical Education in Somerset. Its creation arose out of the need to encourage young people to take an interest in the Sciences, and for them to be made aware of the Technical innovations that were occurring in the 19th century. In 1832 the Somerset Industrial School for Boys was founded to accommodate boys at Brougham Hayes on the Lower Bristol road. It was aided in 1833 by the First Treasury Grant for Education (£20,000 for education of poor children). To be housed in a building which had originally been built as a barracks. The stated object of the home was "to reclaim abandoned boys, and to rescue those whose unhappy circumstances would inevitably lead them to crime and profligacy", inmates being drawn not only from Somerset but also from places at a considerable distance.(As the Somersetshire Home for Boys, it was still in existence in 1927, but had evidently closed by 1931.)
