On April 29, 1872, Bathurst Street School opened at southwest corner of College and Bathurst Streets with accommodation for 300 pupils. On March 1, 1900, the Board decided to spend $4,500.00 for a “school site and twelve room building to replace the present Bathurst Street School and site”. On October 4,1900, the Board decided on a two-storey building. It was designed by Charles H. Bishop and was opened in 1901. The following year on September 18, the Board renamed the school in honour of King Edward VII, who ascended throne that year; the formal opening of new school was held on October 3, 1902. In 1956, the site was enlarged for the present school and the original building demolished by the time new school opened. The new school was formally opened November 24, 1958.
