South Park High School, Lincoln, opened in 1922 and closed in 1989,[1] was a secondary school in Lincoln, England.
History
Grammar school
The school had originally opened in May 1922 as an all-girls grammar school (South Park High School for Girls) for the south of the city. New buildings were added in October 1938 and extensions in 1962 and between 1974 and 1977. Another girls' grammar school in the city was Christ's Hospital Girls' High School, which became Lincoln Christ's Hospital School in 1974.
Comprehensive
It became co-educational in September 1974. The school was closed on 27 July 1989 due to falling numbers.[2] South Park had been originally intended for 200 pupils, however, by the time it closed its size had reached 900.

The school was reopened as The Lincoln School of Science and Technology in September 1992
