I was at this school for only one year. We moved to Norton in August 1957 and I’d already passed the 11 plus in Stockport but was 4 weeks too young to go to Secondary School so I had an enjoyable year with a great class and a great teacher (Mr Thompson). I can put names on some of the faces but I don’t know how reliable my memory is after 67 years.
