Secondary School
A Memory of Skelmersdale.
In 1958 secondary education was available for children who failed the 11+ exam. I attended Skelmersdale Secondary School aged 13 years, 51 weeks old. I was so proud of my new uniform. My best friend was Vivien Pierce and we started together and we loved it. It was a great disappointment not to be able to leave school a year later because I was a few days too young (I had a job to go to). They allowed me leave at Christmas, alas I has lost the job I coveted.
