Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

William W Rollinson was history master at Kilburn Grammar School, 1936-1940 and Headmaster, Salusbury County Secondary School, 1948-1956.

Kilburn Grammar School was opened in 1898 by the vicar of Saint Paul's, Kilburn, as a choir school. The school was first situated on Willesden Lane but moved in 1900 to Salusbury Road, opposite the Brondesbury and Kilburn High School for Girls. At this date it also became a grammar school for boys. The school was acquired by Middlesex County Council in 1908 and enlarged in 1927. It was damaged in the Second World War and rebuilt in 1951-1952. It amalgamated with Brondesbury and Kilburn High School for Girls in 1967 as Brondesbury and Kilburn High.
