Hi,
I was at Cockshut Hill from about '57 to '63.
My teachers were: 1st Year, Miss Pratt, 2nd Year, Mrs Goodall, 3rd Year, Miss Beryl Davies, 4th Year, Mrs Davies, 5th Year, Mrs Witkowska, 6th Year, Mr Evans. I also remember: Miss Orme, (who I think became Mrs Davenport) Literature, Miss Jackson (Art) Miss Poyster (Shorthand) Mrs Rollason (Typing), Mr Bartlett (Science) Miss Richards (Dep. Head and Needlework), Mrs Bradley (Cookery), Mrs Lawley (Cookery) Miss Halls (RE). Miss C Marjorie Smith was the Headmistress. She wouldn't allow anyone to cough in assembly. I can still remember the smell of the varnished wooden floor in assembly and Canon Crowson, the Vicar of Yardley, occasionally visiting the school.
