Abstract:		 Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited was commissioned by Esh Civils, on behalf of Capita Infrastructure, to undertake building recording of a former school on Simpson Street, Sunderland, Tyne and Wear (NGR NZ 38618 57570). The Simpson Street School comprised a Boys School on Wellington Lane and an Infants and Girls School on Simpson Street. All three structures still survived with the Boys School being Grade II listed. The Girls and Infants school buildings are to be demolished to make way for a new road as part of the Sunderland Strategic Transport Corridor Phase 3 (SSTC3). As the infant's school had been heavily altered during the latter part of the 20th century only the Simpson Street Girls School building was to be recorded in accordance with Historic England's Level 2/3 standards. It was undertaken in response to planning condition 8 outlined in planning permission (Application ref: 17/00197/LP3) for the construction of the new dual carriageway. Although the girl's department of Simpson Street school was not nationally listed, it was locally listed on the Tyne and Wear Historic Environment Record (HER 13178). The school first appears on the Ordnance Survey of 1895 however, it opened much earlier in 1867 as Deptford Yard Church of England School, consisting of boys and infant's department (also known as Laing Church of England School during this period). From 1883, the school came under the control of Sunderland School Board and became Simpson Street Boys Board School with a separate department for girls called Simpson Street Girls Board School (Tyne and Wear Archives Ref. E.SU57). It was this building that was recorded during the works.
