Brighton Ave Secondary Modern School

A Memory of Gateshead.

I went to Brighton Avenue Infants, Juniors and Senior School from 1954 - 1962 and I hated it.
Lovely old building some say. You've got to be kidding!

Does anyone remember "Botcherby", the morris dancing nut who was Head of the boys Senior School? He would be locked up these days for what he got up to with his "special" boys.
No, I'm glad it's gone.
