1969 School Report. Age 5After my first 6 months in the English school system, in 1969,  the school headmaster observed me to be:

confident

left-handed

quiet

producing interesting conversation

enjoying drawing

a slow reader

occassionally shedding tears

    But we could always trust the old English education system to put a stop to all that, can’t we?

  2. Madame Defarge writes

    And with this dazzling insight, you were launched upon the world. I wonder how long it took them to decide these things about you.

  3. kevin writes

    All our exercise books had

    LANCASHIRE
    EDUCATION
    COMMITTEE

    printed on the front. Every one of which became defaced:

    LANCASHIRE
    gives
    EDUCATION
    to its
    COMMITTEE
    who are dim

    I’m told that libraries forty miles away did the same thing.
