1957-1960 Newton Hall was the only mixed senior school it was a grammar school until they built Elizebethan Hall as a mixed senior secondry modern, 1962 ish Shakespeare Hall was built as another secondry modern mixed senior school. Ashwell avenue, Stockwell avenue and Oldfleet were the junior schools. The school remaining is/was Isaac Newton.

Oldfleet was a primary school when i went there ashwell and Shakespeare were the junior schools but if you went in both schools ashwell looked like a primary and Shakespeare looked like a senior

You are right about Oldfleet, Ashwell also had a primary, my younger siblings went to it, it was directly behind our house. Shakespeare was initially built as a senior school, I left 'Lizzy' in 64 and many of my mates was at Shakey. I didn't know it was changed to a junior school.
