Notes

A school in Fallingbostel is first mentioned in the "Coronation List".

This is a list of schools that existed in 1952 (but not necessarily in the described location).

Zoom in to see the exact location.

In earlier years, a school called BFES Fallingbostel was (we believe) situated in Wessex Barracks.

Initially a First School but later a Primary School.
