How times have changed.\u201d We think the comments from both Andrew Downs: &#8220;I don\u2019t think it was a poor law school though, and segregated entrances were extremely common in schools of this period, look at any Victorian school , and you\u2019ll see such writing above the doors!&#8221; and Bill Kitching: &#8220;I attended Carlin How junior school in 1926, and we did have separate entrances. We lined up in the cloakroom and marched into the hall where there were white spots painted on the floor. Miss Richardson played the piano and we lined up on the spots It was a hungry time in those days and we always had some one fainting \u2013 usually a girl. It was not a Poor Law school. It was lit by gas and it was quite something when the teacher climbed on a desk to light the gas lights. It was a lovely school with top class teachers. I owe all my success to the school and wish it well in the future&#8221;, sum up the situation very well!
