Former school and schoolmaster’s house. Buff brick construction, school in EGW Bond, schoolmaster’s house in a combination of bonds. School is a single range one and a half storey building, under a pitched gabled roof of slate with one ridge stack.

The schoolmaster’s house is a three bay, two storey L-shape plan form building, under a pitched gabled roof of slate. The gables are parapeted with concrete coping. Two gable stacks and one lateral stack on rear range. {1} White’s 1856 Trade Directory states that a Wesleyan school was about to be built in the village, and White’s 1872 Directory states that by that time the school had been built and was in use as a Day School and Sunday School. {2}{3} Both buildings are shown in the same plan form on the 1887, 1906, and 1950 OS maps of Bardney. {4}{5}{6} Discussions regarding the restructuring of education in Bardney began in the 1940s, with Bardney Methodist, Southrey Church of England, and Kitching’s Charity schools all due to be combined into one county school. By 1962 the reorganisation was still forthcoming, with only 166 pupils in the three schools combined, and by 1963 a plan had been formed for the creation of a joint C. of E./Methodist school rather than a county school. By the early 1980s the schools had been combined, with teaching of junior pupils taking place at the Methodist school buildings and teaching of the infants taking place at the Kitching’s Charity school buildings. Later in the decade all teaching moved to the current site. {7}{8}{9}{10}
