Who was the best school teacher in Sheffield?

[Truegrit 10]

Did he teach History?. I went to St Peters and we had a Mr O'Connor who then went onto Notre Dame when St Peter's closed.

 

He was sooo good looking, I had a huge crush on him all through school, he was also a very good teacher.

 

Yep it's the St Peter's Mr O'Connor....but my Dad taught him everything! Mr McNerney definately the best teacher ever!!

Mr McNerney ....History teacher....St Peter's School then a short time at Notre Dame before illness forced an early retirement.....simply the best!!

For me there is only one candidate.

 

Step forward Mrs Cooper who taught my class M4C at Nethergreen Middle School between 1980-1981.

 

She made school more enjoyable than I had ever known, before and after. She also pushed me to get into the top class at King Edward VII (from where I slunk back to 'middle of the road', but hey ho).

 

Even the class idiots seemed to take an interest in their school work under Mrs Cooper.

 

I salute thee.

 

Mrs Cooper taught one of my kids, another fabulous human being is Mrs Jubb who retired about 10 years ago from NGJS.

Hiya not all people stick to the law...I started working when i was 15 as a pot washer in a pub and at 17 behind the bar when the landlord was short on bar staff so maybe he's telling the truth
