Ironic really that Woodside, formerly for the educationally disadvantaged has now become the prep-school for the early education of the massively advantaged kids eventually going to Bolton School.

Youri McAnespie Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 A mate went to SS Peter and Paul's - he reckoned there was a unit for special kids in a prefab over the road... He claimed they used to have dances as a form of P.E. And these sessions were conducted with the kids being totally nude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be “the backward school” in the days when educationally subnormal (ESN) was an acceptable term. There was another one at Crowthorne above Edgworth.

It's massively overrated. Especially considering the cost. Hardly any go on to Oxbridge... They used to do swimming lessons on a Saturday. There was a photo of Anthony Royle in the foyer - he won sommat playing Badminton for the school, what fucking schools play in Badminton tournaments? I took my nephew to one of these lessons once when his parents had sommat else on. He must've been 30 times at a tenner a pop, still couldn't swim a stroke, and the pool was rammed with kids, they could barely move. Half of them were walking across just doing arms when doing widths. He was one of the walkers. Talk about money for old rope. Bag of shite. I taught him at Bury Baths over about four Sundays, by the fourth he could dive in and everything. I'm available for private tuition - I'll give your kids a thumbs up.

Is it not also a school for kids who struggle to fit in with the teaching at regular schools. I'm thinking kids with apsergers for example.

We couldn’t possibly have Tarquin and Jemima pay for an education others get for not fitting into mainstream education for whatever reason.

I'm pretty sure a son of my missus' friend goes there, and would be surprised if she's forking out a fortune. Presumably this can be funded from elsewhere? The lad is clever as fuck, as is often the case. He was at Turton I think but was a disruptive nightmare because everything was too easy and therefore too boring.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted August 23, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted August 23, 2021 The former Woodside and now Bolton Prep School is a nursery and infant age school so a kid going to Turton wouldn’t be going there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furry muff. Was sure that's what she (missus) had said but must be thinking of somewhere else. I'll report back if I remember to ask.

Site Supporter Spider Posted September 8, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 8, 2021 To be fair, that’s his level. Adding incoherent, baseless opinions to the commentary of late night boxing exhibitions , to an audience largely made up of very fat pisscans. Very apt that he’s there to drone on about has beens with a great deal of lingering bitterness 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
