Castle Junior Schools in Knaresborough were segregated by sex until 1971.
Castle Boys Junior School was founded as a National School in the Castle Yard in 1814. The original buildings were added to later.
Castle Girls Junior School was originally in a room in the nearby vicarage. It moved to a new building in the Castle Yard in 1837 as the National School for Infants and Girls. The infants later moved to a new school at Manor Road.
