Dovedale Infant School is an
infant school situated on Herondale
Road in the Mossley
Hill
section of Liverpool
, Merseyside, England
. It
is a
mixed community school founded
in 1915 as
Dovedale Road Council Infants
Department.
The school
occupies the same estate as Dovedale Junior
School
; the schools are sometimes jointly referred to as
Dovedale Primary School. It is Dovedale
Primary which is probably best known as the school which
George Harrison and
John Lennon of
The
Beatles, and Lennon's lifelong pal
Pete
Shotton, attended.
In the 1950s it had a very good reputation as
a 'feeder' school for Liverpool grammar
schools such as Quarry Bank High School
and Liverpool Institute for Boys
.
In 2001, John Lennon's widow,
Yoko Ono,
donated £15,000 for school refurbishments.
