Dr Williams' School,
Dolgellau OGA

1878-1975

Dr Williams' School first opened its doors to 11 boarders and 20 day girls on 8 February 1878 in Dolgellau, North Wales.
The number soon increased as the school built up its reputation as a pioneer of secondary education for girls. It was to enjoy increasing growth and reputation during the following century, but was forced to close in 1975, just short of its centenary celebrations.  Click here to find out about the publication of a history of the school,  February 2010.

There is still a thriving organization of former pupils and staff.
