QSPI Part 1 indexes approximately 175 Queensland primary schools. Dates for this CD range from 1864 to circa 1997 with a 30 year closure, as recommended by Education Queensland, when names were extracted directly from Admission Registers. Schools range in size from large city ones with admissions in the thousands to small country one-teacher schools with a total enrolment of hundreds. Some schools have long ceased to exist; others are still functioning.

Sources from which the names are drawn are diverse - actual school admission registers, school histories covering a significant anniversary (Jubilee, Golden, Centenary) in the life of a school, and local histories which don’t focus on the school but include a pupil list as part of their story. Many sources provide additional information on the family including age at admission, birth date, parents’ names and occupation, religion, address.

This CD is an excellent resource for researching Queensland families.
