Queen's Park Secondary School was a secondary school in Glasgow, Scotland.

History

Queen's Park School was built in 1873 for the Cathcart Parish School Board and opened officially in 1876,[1][2] with the original building located on Grange Road in the Battlefield neighbourhood of the city, opposite the public park after which it was named as well as the Glasgow Victoria Infirmary hospital. Extensions were added in 1902 and 1912 (the latter intended as the first section to entirely replace the older buildings, but the project went uncompleted due to World War I).[1][2] In its early decades Queen's Park School also educated young children of primary school age, before later being defined as a Senior Secondary school only,[3][4] its Junior equivalent being the buildings a few blocks away on Carmichael Placewhich have survived into the 21st century as Battlefield Primary School.[2][5]

In 1967, a new campus was constructed over a mile away to the east in the Toryglen area to serve as the local comprehensive school for the South East of the city.[9][10][2]

In 1989, Strathclyde Regional Council announced a plan for pupils from Stonelaw High School in the nearby town of Rutherglen – which at that time was within the boundaries of Glasgow – to leave their existing buildings (split over two separate sites) and move into the Queen's Park Secondary buildings at Toryglen,[6] while the Queen's Park pupils would be relocated to Adelphi Secondary School in the Gorbals district.[7][8] However, this plan never became reality, and within a few years a replacement for Stonelaw was under construction in Rutherglen,[9] the Adelphi buildings had been converted to other commercial uses[10] and Queen's Park was marked to be closed; it had already suffered from falling enrollment for some years due to its location on the periphery of its catchment area and persistent rumours concerning the likely closure,[11] and eventually this occurred in 1994.[12][13] Most feeder primary schools were realigned to Shawlands Academy. After several years as a derelict plot, a housing development was built on the site,[14] while its adjacent playing fields still have a recreational function as part of the Toryglen Regional Football Centre.

The Grange Road buildings were utilised as a filming location for The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie in 1968,[15] and the premises became a Teachers' Resource Centre[16] before suffering from an arson attack in the 1990s[15] and being demolished in 2006.[1] The site is now occupied by the New Victoria Hospital (or more precisely one of its car parks),[2] the only surviving feature being the exterior fence and its stone gate posts.[17]

In football, the school still holds the national record for the number of Boys Under 16 Shield victories with six (their closest challengers being local rivals Holyrood Secondary School), although these wins were all achieved prior to World War II.[18]
