Originally The Technical High School, it became
Trinity High School, and finally Trinity Grammar School during this
period, so anyone who attended the school in Trinity Avenue,
Northampton, under any of these names should enjoy
using this site, since most of the material relates to the period up to
1974.
There is also news of later years, so any former
pupils or anyone else with an interest in the school should
find it fascinating too. There is a section for news, photos etc,
from the period after 1974 when it became Trinity School. The school continued as a comprehensive
until it closed on the 9th July
2004. After extensive new building work which is still ongoing, it reopened as Unity College,
a Church of England school, in September 2004. The original
development plan had been to refurbish all of the old Trinity buildings,
including the famous tower, but in April 2005 the plan changed and it
was decided to demolish all of the old buildings and replace them with
new ones. Demolition began at the beginning of August 2005 and was
complete within less than a month. There is now nothing remaining
of the old Trinity School. |

There are lots of memories on this site: some happy and some
not so happy - like the item on the old detention book. They and many of the
photographs have been retrieved from school scrapbooks; others have been sent in
by former pupils.
