I attended Norfolk between 1969 and 1974.I can remember a Mr Headley (though I was never on one of his classes),Miss Roy (French),Mr Pearson (Technical drawing),Mr Chapman (German),Mr Corden (PE) and Miss Collins (English..who became Mrs Dovedale) .It does seem a shame that the playing fields are overgrown,but I do not have fond memories of running around that track!

Mr Bradley left in 1981 I think. I was about to choose drama as a o'level option but then he left - I was devastated!

 

I remember Andy Pack pe teacher and Mr Pyle. I heard that he was still teaching 2 years ago at a school in handsworth I think?

 

My Grandma still lives opposite the school site - but the area has certainly changed since I left in 1983.

 

I now live in australia but still have fond memories of the the school - and many of the teachers. But I must admit I gave the English teacher - 'dragon' freeman the worst time of her life - we seemed to get on each other's nerves all the time - she hated me and vice versa - funny old world - if you had said then that I would become a teacher - I would have choked with laughter! but now I teach English and Drama :)

 

Mr Pyle was indeed teaching at Handswaorth Grange School, he taught me english until I left in 1999. He's since retired but I keep in touch with him through facebook although he's not on very often.

I attended Norfolk right through my school life and left in 1963.

There was a teacher called Leonard Piercy who took technical drawing then and I'm wondering if he is the same one as your Mr Pearson,Subarashii.

I was there from 69-74 and wagged it for 6 weeks until my mum caught me and asked what I was doing and I stupidly said we had been given a day off ! My mum rung school and found out we werent off ! When I got home she went mad ! I had to walk back thru them gates and face the wrath of Deadly Headly ! He banned me from seeing my mate cos he said she was a bad influence ! As if ! I still went to see her !
