More about this scene
Designed by Maxwell & Tuke and completed in 1894, the Technical School, Broad Street, was built to fulfil the requirements of the Technical Instruction Act (1890). Technical education had received a boost during the 1880s when towns like Bradford committed funds to build specialist colleges. They believed such places were essential if their industry was to keep abreast of foreign competition and innovation.
