More about this scene
In the mid to late 1950s, this pattern of school building was springing up everywhere. The standard plan puts the main entrance up two steps, with the assembly hall on the left under a low pitched roof, the boiler chimney in the middle, and classrooms to the right. Most of the building is under a flat roof, which doubtless very soon began to leak! Dustbins arranged along the front of the building might today be considered a health hazard. The Singer saloon and its counterpart, the Hillman Hunter, were two of the popular family saloons of the decade.
