A school in Bolton had to contact Google to correct a mistake which saw their name changed on the search engine. Little Lever School was appearing as New Hall Village School yesterday and had to reassure residents that was not true.
They have since contacted Google about the mishap and asked for it to be corrected. The Church Street site is welcoming children back this September and are keen to make sure those searching for them on Google are not led astray.
The Manchester Evening News conducted a Google search on September 2 which showed Little Lever School labelled as New Hall Village School in the maps section on the right-hand side of the page.
