I was there from 1966-70, year tutor was Stuart Furniss, Wiilie Hill was upper school head and I think the lower school head was called Sanderson. There was Mr&Mrs Blaby who taught history and I think French, Mr Short English, Mr Marsh general science, Mr Wardle taught RE, we knew him as pick lick roll and flick. Sports was Mr Snell and Mr Smith and Mr Burgin, wood work Mr Denton, sadly I spent a lot of my last year fishing as I couldn't wait to leave. I did get excluded for a short time for blowing the boys toilet up after a chemistry lesson.

Pick stick was Willie watson that taught RE Wardle taught english

Pick, lick, roll and flick definitely wasn't Wardle! The owner of this unfortunate handle was a monkey like creature in a black cape who's name escapes me!

Mr Barton history teacher gave me a passion for history that has stayed with me and has been an important part of my life. His lessons were an absolute joy to me we pioneered the brand new history syllabus covering modern history 1840-1964 he covered the holocaust,SS,nazi and communist issues with full honesty and disclosure whilst being sensitive and respectful. I think of him often and thank him once again
