NEW THREADS

Reading the last few posts, in my opinion,I believe that the time has now come in this excellent website to abandon "bait" type posts and concentrate on what K.B.G.S. did ,or not do for you? By being the so called "elitest" pupils in Town at that time was this a good or bad idea.?
One reads such a lot about our "characterful Masters" but did these "role models" at the time impact on how we became "pillars of society or not!" It will be very interesting for future generations of "Educational Historians " to study the "Grammar School" model and what effect it had on Society then and possibly in the 21st century!

Where's the fun in that,J.F? Your posting has been viewed 30 times and no-one has taken the trouble to comment. In any event the trap doesn't need to be baited before the mice are throwing themselves on it.

Re: NEW THREADS

At least your bait was taken by one person, John.

It may be the early bird that gets the worm, but it's the second mouse that gets the cheese.
Boom boom!
