I always knew this as Whiston Central. I don't believe it became Rainhill High though - that's on Warrington Rd.

The School in Portico Lane was known as Central School in the late 40's early 50's but 1955 on was known as Whiston Secondary Modern

St.Helens took over the school and it was then known as Rainhill High School, after which they built a 6th form block in Warrington Road Rainhill and then added a main school to the Rainhill site, after which the Portico site closed and it was demolished.
