Bishop Road School was opened in 1894 as a temporary school under the Horfield School Board. The Headmistress of the Girls and Infants section was Miss Morgan and 48 children, of whom 12 were girls and 36 were boys, started on the first day. Miss Morgan them after one month and she found that 15 of them did not know their alphabet. The building still has Infants and Girls carved in stone above two of the doors.
