Old school photograph probably guessing taken 1890's

Gt Yarmouth

By Shirley Waring

Can anybody help with this photograph?
I found this unmarked school photograph while going through my late father's possessions. I am hoping that I am looking at my grandmother as a school girl. She was born in Gt Yarmouth in 1884. Can anybody recognise the location?
Kind regards

Hello Shirley, I don't know if you had any replies; I have just come across your photograph. My grandfather was born in St Peters Road in 1880 and I have a schoolbook of his marked "British School, Yarmouth". It is undated but from the quality of the drawing and mapping inside I would say he would be about 10 or 11, so a bit older than the children in this picture. Did anyone identify what school it was? I would love to find out more about his life as a child with his 5 siblings.
