William Brookes School

The "unlucky 13" is the reason why the thirteen loaves that bakers once supplied were never called by the number, but described as "a baker's dozen." The thirteenth loaf was regarded as a special bribe for the devil not to spoil the sale or the bread.

William Brookes School will be the first secondary school in Shropshire to be completely rebuilt.

It will be located on the same site as the existing school. The new school is due to open in September 2010. This section will be regularly updated to communicate the various phases of the detailed planning and development stages.
