A few memorials are to be found inside schools and a proportion of these (in Dumfries and Galloway at least) are not listed on UKNIWM. Therefore it makes sense to list all schools and 'check them off' as the memorials are 'collected' or proven not to exist. This list of schools is not yet complete.

I will keep this updated as I go along but others are welcome to join the hunt of course. Just let me know what has been checked and I will update.

Collected = memorials identified and photos taken
Part Collected = some photographed but at least one still to collect
None = confirmed that there are no memorials inside the school
blank = yet to be checked
Known to exist = pretty good intelligence that memorial exists but not yet collected

Annan Academy Known to exist
Carsphairn Primary None
Castle Douglas High School Collected
Dalry Secondary None
Dumfries Academy Collected
Dumfries St Joseph's College Collected
Gelston Primary Collected
Kells Primary
Kirkcudbright Academy Collected
Kirkcudbright Johnston Primary Collected
Laurieknowe Primary Collected
Moffat Academy Known to exist
Penninghame Primary None
Warriston School known to exist
