I went to a primary school where I was taught to ask 'which' when confronted with a choice! :hihi:

 

Abbeydale Junior and Infant School and very good it was too, at the time. Mr Richard Potts was the BEST teacher, he took no prisoners, called a spade a spade and he was very entertaining. And darned good looking too! I can still remember his car registration number as it was a private plate, and I'm sure I'll see him around one day. He was the best, and I know heaps of other kids in my class feel the same way.

 

Wow! When I saw this thread I thought yeah, Mr Potts was my favourite primary school teacher, then I saw your post :), he was a great teacher & demanded respect from us all, he got it too :) I used to love how kids would squirm when he turned his 'angry eyes' on them though :hihi:

but I honestly thought that I would be the only one that would remember his private reg after all these years! :o

I went to Bradway County Junior School until 1968

 

I remember Miss Bedford (my teacher in the 4th year)

 

Miss Wright (walked with a limp)

 

Mr Strange

 

and a teacher we called " pop mental" ... can't remember his real name, but his teaching methods included throwing chalk and blackboard rubbers at anyone caught misbehaving

 

Ah.... the good old days

I went to Warren Junior and Infant school..a great little school.

 

Mr Housden the headteacher was fab although I remember thinking how ancient he was..Mrs Batty, Mrs Guest, Mrs Walker.

 

Had some great times especially in our 'mobile' classroom with Mrs Guest.

 

Sadly no longer there.

I remember these teachers at Warren too. Mrs Batty was my favourite. I remember being terrified of Mrs Guests classroom cos other kids said Grey lady lived under the steps!

But the school you went to isn't a choice, it's a fact...
