THIS week we are taking a look back to former schools in Warrington which are no longer here.

From high schools to primary schools, there has been lots of changes over the decades.

Here are some places which will take you back to your school days.

If there are any we have missed out, let us know in the comments section.

1 BEWSEY HIGH SCHOOL

Closed in 1993 due to falling pupil numbers, it is now a housing development.

Some of the buildings are still in community use.

This school in Hood Manor was shut to allow for the new school to built on the nearby Chapelford estate.

Work is well under way for a new housing development on the land.

The building is now operating as the New Horizons School.

The land is now being used by the expanding Great Sankey High School

It was founded back in 1526.
