Anyone on here go to Ecclesfield Comprehensive School?

Recommended Posts

I went to Ecco for 2 years between 1985 and 1987. stopped on to do my A'levels having previously been at yewlands.

 

Best 2 school years I had. Took Geography just to go on the week long field trip to Bridport. The most beer I've ever drunk in a week!

 

Teachers I can recall are Mr Walsh and Mr Howard - English

Johnny Moss- PE

Mrs Skidmore (Great Name) - Geography

 

Still see all my old mates from Ecco days.

Mr Guest, wow he was gorgeous, he drove a little sports car ( I think it was a TR7 or a TVR ) we did a sponsered walk once and he was giving lifts home to tired pupils, I was tempted but decided the miles i had already walked would be wasted. I bet he's bald now all the best ones go bald!! I can still see him in his football strip.

 

By the way I had been sponsered at 2p per mile but cunningly changed them to half p's on form and made a bit of profit. I was in the final year the minibus they were trying to buy was no good to me!

 

My favorite teacher's were Tony Smith and Mr Templeman, he used to smoke in the corridor as he taught us.

Mr Guest was the maths teacher if i'm right....no he isn't bald he hasn't changed at all.I see him in Asda quite regular in Chapeltown.

When I was there it was still called Ecclesfield Grammar, I left in 1966.

Still in touch with two ex classmates, we had a reunion in may this year- first time we had met in almost twenty years.

I still have the class photo from the first form in 1961

 

 

I left Ecclesfield Grammar in 1969, and recently came across their website
