Langley Mill/Aldercar School Teachers
replied on: 1/1/2008 3:47:09 PM

Hello everyone and happy new year. I have just been looking at the said subject and couldn't help but laugh at some of the comments left by Jenks, unflattering as some of them are. I'll bet some of the teachers were as pleased to see the back of him as he was of them! I was at Aldercar Secondary from 1970 - 75 and my first RG teacher was Miss Weir - later to become Mrs Rodgers and she taught music.
Other teachers I haven't seen mentioned from that time are:
Mrs stapleton - cookery
Miss Robinson - cookery - who I remember once marking my written cookery exam and being very annoyed that I had answered the average hens egg size as being two and a half pounds instead of two and a half ounces! A genuine mistake but she would not believe I had not done it one purpose.
Mrs Walters - sewing
Mrs Heap - headmistress
Deputy Head Mr Wrigley has been mentioned but I remember him having a booming voice and having the ability to make boring things sound interesting and he had a brilliant sense of humour - though I very much doubt anybody would dare to cross him.
I too could not wait to leave but it wasn't long before I realised what a great time I had there.
