The Mosslands School is a secondary school in Wallasey Village, Wirral, England, which has about 1,200 pupils and one hundred staff.
The school was opened on 27 October 1956 by glass mogul Sir Harry Pilkington as a Secondary Technical School for Boys with around 500 pupils and twenty staff.
The site has since moved from two sites to one larger site. The former lower school annexe for years 7 and 8 was demolished, and the upper school site (years 9, 10 and 11) expanded to accommodate pupils from all years. The new site contains science laboratories, art studios, music suites, computer rooms and a library. Extensions provided rooms for humanities and improvements to Languages, Maths and English. In 2004, the school became a specialist Technology College. There are three houses Grenfell Faraday and Ruskin.
