Welcome to the website for the former Percy Jackson Grammar School which was situated in the village of Woodlands on the outskirts of Doncaster in South Yorkshire. The aim of this website is to create a permanent record of this lovely Art Deco style school and to help preserve its memory and enable ex pupils to reconnect or to remain in contact with each other.

 

If you are an ex pupil or member of staff or are just interested in our school, please feel free to browse the site. I have endeavoured to make it as interesting as possible and richly illustrate the site with scans of photos and documents from the school’s rich history as well as video footage.

 

You can also discover the latest information on any planned school reunions and other news related to the site.

 

We also have a shop where you can purchase a range of books related to the school or written by ex pupils. All our work is voluntary and obviously this work does incur costs, such as web hosting fees, electricity, petrol, etc.,so please feel free to donate.

 

Thank you for visiting, we hope you enjoy the site.

 

Regards,

 

Gerald and Mick

Mick Bannister (PJGS 1965 - 1972) is a retired IT consultant who now works primarily as a radio and multi-media producer. For a time he also designed and built websites professionally, so was an ideal choice to assist Gerald to preserve and update the website in July 2025.
