Which secondary school did you attend?

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Bluecoat school Oldham,
Anthony H Wilson was my English teacher in my first year.

They turned me down. I remember being quite chuffed but my mother was devastated for a while

You must have been there in the late sixties/early seventies then?

I also went to Blue Coat, 1999-2006. Those ten years have flown!

It was early 70s, I don't really remember him, although he wasn't there very long.

 

[StrangewaysHereWeCome]

Anyone else go to what was then Burnage High? Four footballers went there too - The Beckford brothers of City and Wes Brown and Roger Byrne (killed at Munich) of United. Other famous alumni include Lord Norman Foster the architect (eg the Gherkin in London) and me.
I like the word "alumnus" and its plural "alumni".

Yes I was there 1986 to 1991. Remember the rusted barge in the first years playground? The Spencer block with all its staircases at the upper school?

 

[the blue panther]

Xaverian 69-74. Pm me anyone who was there around then. Famous? Bernard Hill - Yozzer Hughes; Anthony Burgess - clockwork orange. All fuckin nutters, but, in fairness, there were quite a few bright buggers too :-) Happy days!
