Cottingham Croxby Primary School
Encyclopedia
Cottingham Croxby Primary School is a primary school serving Cottingham
and the Bricknell Avenue area of Hull
, England
. Its intake is made up of children from two Education Authorities.
It was seriously affected by the floods which hit the East Riding of Yorkshire
during June 2007. The school itself flooded, which resulted in the school being closed 4 weeks early. The pupils were educated in classrooms at the University of Hull
for the remainder of the school year.
Although the school site re-opened for the start of the new school year at the start of September 2007, the majority of children were educated in mobile classrooms. It is not known currently when the children will return to the main building.
There are some rumours which suggest that the school will be downsized as a result of the floods with the Local Education Authority looking at class sizes and the intake in each school year.
