Hello, Carolynb. I can't be specific, but, putting with other photos, I am guessing between 1900 and 1910. I'm sorry but cannot reliably name school. Could be Farnworth, Warrington Rd., or The National.
As you have connections with Widnes and you are on Facebook, take a look at page "Widnes Discovered". Cheers, Mike.

Hi Milke
Thanks for you4 reply. I live in Widnes. Farnworth school I’d still there. I remember Warrington Rd but never never went 8nside and my mum went to the National school or the The Nash (might not be correct spelling) as it was known. They are all in different parts of Widnes  Farnworth Halton view and West Bank Are they family members ?
Thanks Carolyn
I will show it to my mum bit before her time she is 95 and going strong.
