Chief moaned like **** at the faded zig zag lines outside the school gates. Re-painted them himself with his divvy mates.
blimey at your age i thought nearly all were sent to "special" schools since even my time ( i'm much younger than you ) even just physically disabled kids were regularly segregated in special schools . Thinking about it are you sure you didn't get sent to a "special" school
Yeah well all the kids at my school were a bit special. But in regards to the wheel chair kid, I'd swear it was some trial in the 70's, of integrating some special needs kids. I might google later, to see if I can find anything on it. Someone like Trebs or RCL might know.
I was always deliberately slightly weird and made way too many sex jokes. I grew out of that last year though.
Anyway while talking about the nutty lot at my school, I always remember this massive kid at school wanting to do me some serious damage, fook knows what I'd done to upset him, but he was raging...bit like a normal day on 606. Anyway lunch time, he's come at me in the playground, and i've only just caught him in the corner of my eye, I'm like shhite, I'm dead However, sometimes it pays to have mates that are just as big, next minute my big fook off mate, who just happened to be near-by has jumped between me and this nutter, the two biggest monsters in the school, face-off time, my life was saved.
From 1970 "severely handicapped children" became the responsibility of LEA's rather than health authorities so probably a reponse to that but there were still many hundreds probably thousands of special schools still operating often for those with purely physical disabilities probably the best known being Lord Mayor Treloar in hampshire .
That makes sense, so probably something to do with that. I think it was explained to us at school at the time, but I don't remember shhite like that.
At my school it was George who everyone was terrified of including the staff made worse by the fact he was permanently ready to kick off .
