Sorry if this is all getting a bit Friend Reunited, but I'd be interested to see which of the borough's fine educational establishments UTS members went to. Kind of a sister thread to Where do you work? if you will.

I'll start us off with Chuckery and QMGS. Chuckery was great, although I'm sure all those fumes from Crabtree and Chamberlain&Hill have had a lasting effect.

Croft Street, Bussill Jones, Hillary Street and QM. It's a wonder I turned out to be such a fine, upstanding citizen!

Blue Coat Infants and Junior, King Edwards in Birmingham and then the long journey south to Imperial College in London.

Am impressed - judging by the literacy standards on the posts i read on here i would have thought only a handful had got through their GCSEs!
