Wallasey Grammar School in the Wirral area was first constructed on St George's Road. A picture was painted by Victorian artist John Henry Robinson (1852–1922) of the first school building,[1] and another by Harold Hopps (1879–1967) [2] In 1876 it moved to Withens Lane. It moved again to a site purchased from the Navy in 1911, moving its former premises on Flag Field. The site once occupied by the now defunct grammar school is now occupied by Liscard Primary School. A Technical College was opened next door in 1963. The grammar moved to Leasowe in 1967, and later became Wallasey Comprehensive School.
On 3 July 2017 it was confirmed by the school that it would close down in August 2018.[3] The Kingsway Academy then officially closed on 31 August 2018.
