It was opened on 26th October, 1937 by Kenneth M. Lindsay, MP,
from the Board of Education.
The school cost £30,000.
It accommodated 520 children
from the local housing estates.
In 194?, it became Ovenden Secondary School, and subsequently the
Ridings School
The school was not associated with a specific church, and evening
services were held throughout the week by the Independents.
Jeremiah Stead rented the building as a private day school, known
as Jerry's School.
The Sunday School is reported to have had 220 scholars and a team of
68 teachers.
By 1820, it had become overcrowded and, instead of extending the
school, Wheatley Sunday School and Illingworth Church School were
built.
In 1830, there were 120 scholars, and in 1836, there were 160.
As the population in Ovenden and the number of members increased, a
subscription list began by which 600 people raised about £1,800
for the building of a new Providence Chapel.
In 1855, it was rented by the Baptists as a Sunday School and for
Sunday evening services, until they moved to Lee Mount Baptist Church.
In 1877, the need for the Charity had ceased and the buildings were
sold
