Minster School - a modern school grounded in tradition |
 |
|
Lincoln Minster School was
formed in 1996, through a merger of three established local
schools: the Cathedral School for Boys, which was the base
for young Cathedral choristers; St Joseph's School for Girls,
a Roman Catholic day and boarding school, and Stonefield
House School, which taught children up to the age of 11.
The new School, part of the
United Church Schools Trust (UCST),
was celebrated at an Inauguration Service at Lincoln Cathedral
on 13 September 1996. The service represented a new beginning
for the school which has since grown and developed to provide
an excellent education for 820 pupils across three sites.

The
Pre-Prep, Prep and Senior School sites are all situated in
Lincoln's historic Cathedral Quarter, within a stone's throw
of the Cathedral, Castle, Bailgate and the appropriately named
Steep Hill. This area is scattered with Roman remains and
cobbled streets, and is well known for its independent shops,
range of eateries and quality of life. |

Many of our buildings are
traditional, stone or brick built, with tremendous character.
The Prep School enjoys a splendid beamed dining room by
the Cathedral, and its Priory building was once home to
the historian Sir Francis Hill.
|
| In
contrast, the main building on our Senior School site was
purpose built, opened in 2002 by the Chairman of UCST and
then Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Carey. The sweeping, curved
building overlooks the main City and boasts fully equipped
science labs, art studios, IT suites and our Sixth Form Centre.
Work is currently underway to develop a £10m sports and music
block, with 205-seat auditorium. This current and exciting
phase of major investment will be completed in 2009. |
