Thetford Grammar School
Thetford Grammar School is an independent co-educational school in Thetford, Norfolk, England. The school might date back to the 7th century, which would make it one of the oldest schools in the United Kingdom.
==History==
The school website conjectures its origin traces back to 631,〔(Thetford Grammar School - History ), accessed 17 Aug 2009〕 and through its Roll of Headmasters to 1114. The Independent Schools Inspectorate assert in their 2012 report that "The school was originally founded in the 10th Century" but without evidence http://www.isi.net/schools/7179/. It appears to have ceased from around 1496 until its refoundation from the will of Sir Richard Fulmerston in 1566.〔'Thetford, chapter 23: Of the school and hospital', An Essay towards a Topographical History of the County of Norfolk: volume 2 (1805), pp. 128-131. URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=78041 Date accessed: 18 August 2009〕 The refoundation was confirmed by an Act of Parliament in 1610.〔 Part of the school is built on the site of a thirteenth-century Dominican Friary, which was built on, and incorporated parts of, the Norman cathedral.〔Channel 4, (Time Team: Thetford, Norfolk, 17 January 1999 ), accessed 18 Aug 2009〕 This building, now known as "Old School", comprised the entire school for about 300 years, and is where Roger North and Thomas Paine were educated.
The school developed rapidly in the 1880s, and in 1888 Thetford Grammar School for Girls was built alongside the existing Grammar School. The school became a Voluntary controlled school in 1944, and remained in the state sector until 1981 when it regained its independent status. The original boys' school and the girls' grammar school merged in 1975 to form a new coeducational school.〔
