When I was eleven years old I did not go to a Grammar or so called secondary modern School but was indeed privileged to go to a technical school - it was as though someone had designed a school just for me amazing: Maths was taught as separate units geometry, trig, mechanics and calculus. Science the same Biology, Physics , chemistry metalurgy, Practical subjects wood work, metal work both in sheet metal and Machine shop, also I did heraldry, masonry, brick work, Art one term of Latin and one term of French, Technical drawing,
English Language, My Favourite: English Lit (Billy Wagglestaff, Webster Sheridan Dickens Buchanan) Played Cricket, Rugby, Hockey, our instructors were school teachers, tech college lectures and disabled . We were taught to honour our armed forces our elders and respect those who gave their time some times without remuneration to our betterment I finished at 14 better equipped to the life that followed than does the majority to-days graduates. I'm not greedy I prefer honesty and integrity and health to wealth and freedom over socialism.
