Link Block
The Link Block is a two-storey suite that was officially opened in September 1988, forming a major addition to the school. When completed, it bisected the original 1926 school quadrangle, creating two smaller areas: an east quad and a west quad. Following the line of Boston's ancient Bar Ditch, it was designed by Keith Stevens, an alumnus who attended BGS from 1951-58. The floors are connected by two staircases situated at opposite ends of the block.
Ground floor
The ground floor includes:
- The main entrance to the school
- A glass-walled room adjacent to the entrance, known as the 'Goldfish Bowl'
- A reception area
- An administrative suite, including the Headmaster's Office
- A large classroom (currently labelled Room T), which is mainly used for teaching Religious Studies.
First floor
The first floor contains five classrooms, four of which are currently used for teaching modern foreign languages.
The southernmost classroom (currently labelled Room S) was originally used for Music, until the dedicated Art and Music Block was completed in 1997.
The northernmost room was originally a combined Latin and ICT suite, but was dedicated to ICT from 1999 onwards after the departure of Classics teacher Ron Abbott, which marked the end of the teaching of Latin at the school. The unusual combination of Latin and ICT was due to Ron Abbott having taken a conversion course in computing.
