I went to Dorrington Road Sch until 1968.
I remember my first class teacher was Mrs Whitehouse.
I also remember someone in my class having a ballet accident and then returning to school in a wheelchair as she must have had spinal cord damage as she never walked again.
I remember the teacher in Yr 6 who used to have metal discs about 3” diameter which he would skim across the desks every time someone answered a correct question. We had 4 teams and at the end of each week the team with the most ‘discs’ all had sweets. Amazing teacher and he got me successfully through my 11 plus.
Anyone remember him or his name?
Very fond memories of this school.
