I don't remember it being called Oakbank Grammar School, though maybe it was, and I wasn't paying attention. My memory of it is that Joe Watthey changed the name to Keighley School. As if there weren't other schools in Keighley. Anybody else chime in?
There was indeed a good discussion of this topic on the site previously.
I quote my posting on the matter:-
"I think we're repeating history here, but I've trawled the site looking for the relevant postings and can't find them. However, after the brief flirtation with Miles Gale, the school became known as Keighley School. It stll retained this name when I left in 1965. Oakbank Grammar School was a later incarnation."
I still stand by this.
