Catalogue Description

The school opened in 1910 as New Shildon Council Infants School
On 7 September 1925, it became Shildon and East Thickley Timothy Hackworth Council School
On 28 June 1929 the boys' department of the school ceased to exist and the school was then known as the Shildon Timothy Hackworth Senior Mixed School
Changes were made again in 1931 when on 25 August the school opened a new department which became known as Shildon Timothy Hackworth Council Senior Girls' School. From this date the school site held three schools, Mixed Infants, Mixed Juniors and Senior Girls with a headteacher for each school.
In July 1976 the Senior Girls Department was closed and the girls transferred to the newly built Sunnydale Comprehensive School.
The infant and junior schools then amalgamated and became known, as it is today, Timothy Hackworth Primary School.
