This is a list of the Birmingham board schools, built between the Elementary Education Act 1870 (33 & 34 Vict. c. 75) which established board schools, and the Education Act 1902, which replaced school boards with local education authorities. Most of the board schools were designed by the firm Martin & Chamberlain (M&C).
