Born in 1914, at the outbreak of the First World War, in the tiny Suffolk village schoolhouse where his mother was the Headmistress, little did Charles Thomas Barnett Loades know that he was destined to spend the first 60 years of his life, in one way or another, at school. In these memoirs, he takes you on a 'school journey' spanning the 1920s to the 1970s, from Fornham All Saints to Bury St. Edmunds in Suffolk, and eventually to London, via Great Yarmouth, Cheltenham and Northampton. With his recollections of many different characters, experiences and events encountered along the way, often described in vivid detail, the book is something of a social history of English middle-class life as well as a chronicle of some of the most important developments in Secondary Education that took place in the UK during the last century. In the final 'Term' of his career in education, as Headmaster of Creighton School in North London with its 1500 pupils and 75 staff, Charles Loades oversaw the creation and establishment of what was to become recognized as a shining model of the new concept of Comprehensive Secondary Education introduced amid some controversy by the government of the day.
