Morley St/Rivelin 1970-1977

 

Was there when the name changed and it converted from a junior to middle school.

 

Teachers at Rivelin Middle

Mrs Whiteley

Miss Bone

Mrs Carter

Mr Butterfield

 

Myers Grove 1977-1983

Because we were fed from a middle school we went straight into the second year which was very difficult - all the rest of the kids already knew each other after a year at the school.

 

Form teachers at Myers

 

Mr Connerton (Class "2M1") (Eccentric English teacher with a penchant for quick-fire spelling tests)

Mr Crompton (Class "3M1/4M1") (French teacher - quite rotund but can't remember much else)

Mr Perry (Class "5Py") (Very cool English teacher with a moustache)

 

Some of the other teachers I remember :

 

Mr (William) Hill (The original headmaster of the school who had pretentions of runing a grammer school but was a nice old guy I remember, he retired while I was there)

 

My (Alan) Old - Head of lower school then head of 6th form and math teacher - the school's claim to fame; Alan Old was a British Lion and England international rugby player. Had a bit of a reputation for dicipline but was always OK with me

 

My Lloyd - Head of year - nice guy, but I recall had a tragic incident after I left (mid 80s) involving his ex wife and daughter

 

Mr Snell (Games teacher)

[caronlel 10]
