Contributory Schools.—The following schools would
probably be contributory schools to an Open-Air School
situated in King Edward VII. Park:—
Approximate
No. on Roll.
Chamberlayne Wood Road ... ... 1200
College Road ... ... ... ... ... 400
Princess Frederica ... ... ... ... 900
Kensal Rise ... ... ... ... ... 1200
Furness Road ... ... ... ... 1300
Pound Lane ... ... ... ... ... 1200
Acton Lane ... ... ... ... ... 500
Keble Memorial ... ... ... ... 600
Harlesden C. of E. ... ... ... ... 400
Leopold Road ... ... ... ... 1200
Oldfield Road ... ... ... ... 1200
St. Andrew's ... ... ... ... 900
Total 11,000
It may be assumed that at least 2 per cent, of these children
require education in an Open-Air School, so that the
suggested school for 60 scholars would be constantly full.
The Building.—T he school will consist of two buildings:
1. Administration Block:—
Teachers', Doctors' and Nurses' room.
W.C. and washhand basin for staff.
Store room.
Girls' cloakroom.
Boys' cloakroom.
8 Washhand basins for boys and girls.
1 Slipper and 6 shower baths.
4 W.C.'s for girls.
