He was a good class master, and let the bigger boys bring in LPs to play at lunch time, when we were spotty fledglings. That was how I first heard Black Sabbath. Brookes was quite unpatronizing about the hairy music taste.
Denby (1C). Braund (weird physics teacher and teacher of weird physics). A very odd French teacher who looked like an elderly Orson Welles with a goatee. Rusty Reynolds, the world's most ineffective manager of classroom discipline. Hotdog Hitchcock the geography man. That woodwork teacher wo liked to whack pupils with a lump of four by two. And we had a woman teach us biology in the 3rd form,Hitler Hill, remember him well with a board rubber being his weapon of choice although Looby Jones used to do the sex ed.
I remember Williamson smiling while he gave me the cane, Chas Cope, the drinking, sweary History teacher, Willy Pope, Les Hamilton, Krone, Geoff Garland, Ken Garland, Adrian Hilton-Dennis together with the aforementioned Ned Land and Jack Liddell.
Some line up
.I am hoping that won't trigger recollections of the French teacher with no bra and very hairy armpits. I often wondered what the peculiar sound was in the boys toilets, and now realize it was probably 5th formers, furiously wanking.
I think Neil Shepherd dated the French teacher…Denby (1C). Braund (weird physics teacher and teacher of weird physics).

There was also another French teacher who definitely wasn’t capable of causing peculiar sounds emanating from the boys toilets (there were only boys toilets as I remember…)

That's right, it wasn't Looby. And the Orson Wells french teacher (not the wanking one) was called Watson, I think. Old man's memories
Rusty got us to do an essay ‘why Sheffield United will win the European Cup in 1982’. I seem to recall my plan involved them signing a host of Dutch players, sadly for them it was not to be ….Denby (1C). Braund (weird physics teacher and teacher of weird physics).

Braund who had some disabilities used to hang on to the top of the blackboard with one hand whilst scribing- until we put drawing pins on there. And there was Viney - we kept shorting the electrolysis experiments so he had to keep going up and downstairs to reset the fuse. Oh what fun we had!Denby (1C).

Like wise - 3 years HGSB then 2 years Blatch which I hated with a passion
I did the last year of 0-levels, so was the year above you. So it turns out it was me not talking to you...
(Not necessarily true, tbf - I did talk to some GIRLS in the year below - as I had to redo O-level Art after some kind of marking fiasco, so did the lessons with a 5th year class, who were surprisingly welcoming)
