The second part of the Secret Grammar School on BBC4.Interesting.Can't say I miss my days at WHS myself.I was grateful for the 6th form education but I could have done without the class snobbery.
Harry,I'm interested, what class snobbery Phil?
Harry,
Ha!
I remember that I wanted to study a 4th subject at "A" level,Sociology as well as History,Economics and English,which I did take.This would have involved me going to Southend Tech.(as Westcliff didn't offer this subject at the time,probably still don't).I looked into it and got a timetable for classes etc.When I mooted the idea to my form master Arnie Shone his reply, (which I've never forgotten),was "If you were a genius you would have got here when you were eleven."
I have other examples.Not all concerning myself by any means.
:smile: Blimey was Sociology a subject back then?
Cue Maureen Lipman and a dodgy Yiddish accent.
