Dunton Primary School
The Dunton County Primary School opened in the mid 1930s as a Council school. Situated in Lower Dunton Road, it replaced a small church school that opened in 1843 in the same road.

A pair of concrete air raid shelters, built during the second world war, were later demolished in 1973 when cracks in the brickwork exposing the metal reinforcing deemed them unsafe. They had been used as a storage facility and were replaced with a more modern building.

The school closed in the late 1970s and is now a private residence.

Amongst the former Headmasters/Headmistresses of the school were Mrs Marson, Mrs M. Mazonowicz. Mr John Massey and Mr Sibley.
