''Alumwell Business and Enterprise College converted to academy status in 2012 and became West Walsall E-ACT Academy.'' Alumwell Business and Enterprise College was in the Alumwell/Pleck area of Walsall, about a mile west of the town centre. It also took pupils from Birchills and further afield. A comprehensive school, it had Business and Enterprise College status since September 2003. The head teacher was Mr. A. E. Hubble, B.Ed., NPQH. ==History== The school was opened, on land owned by the Earl of Bradford, in September 1971 as Wilfred Clark Comprehensive, an 11-18 school formed by the amalgamation of four secondary modern schools. It was the first school in Walsall to be designed with out-of-hours community users in mind: a vision of the then Director of Education, Mr. R. D. Nixon, which, for a time, brought visits from education officers from all over England. Since September 1974, and prior to its present appellation, it has been known as the Alumwell Comprehensive School,〔(education/ ) Walsall: Education, ''A History of the County of Stafford: Volume 17: Offlow hundred (part)'', Victoria County History (1976) , pp. 254-266.

The annexe in Scarborough Road (used for years 7 and 8, and some year 9 subjects) was closed in July 1991 due to a decline in pupil numbers, and taken over by Walsall College (WALCAT). Its first headteacher, until 1974, was Mr. Leslie Cox. His successor was Mr. Eugene M. Hughes, who served the school for 18 years until 1992, when he was succeeded by Miss Susan M. Bradford, who served the school for a similarly long period before leaving in December 2009 having gained a number of quality marks for the school, in particular, Investors in People. In September 2012, Alumwell Business and Enterprise College converted to Academy status, becoming West Walsall E-ACT Academy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alumwell Business and Enterprise College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
