Bluecoat School Oldham

We had an absolute horror bag as Dep Head at Bluecoat Comp Mrs Pacey ! Mr McAlister was the Head but she was a right dragon The strap and cane were widely used there I was in Mothersill house in the early 1970 s Anyone else there at that time apparently Tony Wilson ( T V presenter / Hacienda ) was a temp teacher there but that was after I d left I remember Ms Pratico the French teacher who gave us all FRENCH names in her lessons Mr Fitton a little fat music teacher Mr Jonstone Geography
Had the strap and cane a few times but didn’t do me any harm It was always for what would seem trivial things these days Gawd those teachers were so scary !!
