Haslingfield School

History of Haslingfield School

This one of 18 schools in the county to have been endowed between 1660 and 1730.  The cost was borne by various charities and children paid: 6d children of farmers, 3d those of tradesmen and all others 1d a week. In 1837 the schoolmaster was paid £20 a year to teach 80 pupils, two thirds of which were girls.

The old school building is one of the village community centres.
