I thought some folks would get a bit of a chuckle from this piece. It was written by my Music Teacher and I found it when I was checking up on my somewhat "exclusive" old Grammar school. I was in the sixth form at this time and anyone who knows me should have a laugh at the last sentence.
"There was also another problem, I was the first male to join the staff, in fact apart from the caretaker the only male in the building, something that did not bother me even if it might concern some of my future pupils. I taught co-educationally for many years in Dagenham, another inner city Grammar School and in a Girl's High School in Sydney, although I will admit the elegant Sixth Form young ladies from Clapham were at first a bit daunting."
