The King Edward VI School, Morpeth
King Edward VI School, Morpeth is a voluntary controlled academy school located in Morpeth, Northumberland, England. It was established by a royal charter as Morpeth Grammar School and later as King Edward VI Grammar School. The school became a comprehensive school in the 1960s and became an academy in December 2011.
==History==
The refoundation of the school is frequently associated with William Turner (c. 1508–1568), nonconformist divine. He is known as the "Father of English Botany", a native of Morpeth, and is believed to have attended the grammar school before attending Cambridge and later to have returned to be its headmaster.
Morpeth Grammar School was the plaintiff in a lawsuit of the longest duration in English legal history. The case started in 1710 and concerned the recovery of lands granted to the school by Edward VI and later leased to the Thornton family. The case was reopened in 1833, advanced in 1847, and determined in 1870.〔(Google Books: Law Journal 1832-1949 )〕 By the 1960s the school was known as King Edward VI Grammar School 〔(Old Pictures of Morpeth - The Chronicle )〕
The school lost its status as a grammar school in the educational reforms of the 1970s and became a comprehensive. A new school building was opened in 1967 to accommodate the boys and girls grammar schools although they remained segregated until the new educational reforms took effect.
