Schools in Oxford

[Duchess]

my great grandfather was a scholar on the 1901 census aged 10, he lived in Cowley, Oxford with his family. Is there anywhere to check what schools were around Catherine Street, Oxford back in 1901, all his siblings that were of school age were scholars too.

Have you tried the Cowley Local History Society (http://www.cowleyhistory.org.uk/index.html) to see if they are able to help?
