Kelly's Norfolk Directory of 1900 records (in the Stow Bardolph entry): 'Board School, Barroway Drove (mixed), built in 1880, for 80 children'. The expenses of erecting and running the school were shared between Downham Market School Board and Stow Bardolph and Wimbotsham United District School Board, as the children attending the school were drawn from areas covered by both Boards. The minute books of the two School Boards record that there was some disagreement as to the division of expenses in 1879 and 1880 when the school was first built.
Initially Barroway Drove School was managed by Downham Market School Board, which included two representatives appointed by Stow Bardolph and Wimbotsham U.D. School Board. However, the Downham Market School Board minutes record that on 7 September 1885 the Board signed and sealed a deed transferring Barroway Drove School to Stow Bardolph and Wimbotsham U.D. School Board (C/ED 3/65 page 399). The Downham Market School Board minutes, 1871-1903, are to be found at C/ED/ 3/64-67. The Stow Bardolph and Wimbotsham U.D. School Board and Managers' minutes, 1877-1908, are at C/ED 3/182-186
From June 1995 the pupils of Barroway Drove School attended Clackclose C.P. School in Downham Market three days a week. Barroway Drove County Primary School closed on 21 July 1995 and the children attended Clackclose School full time from September 1995.
