Barkers' Butts History:


Ok, a few changes so worth reading this first.

The history pages (particularly later years) are often sketchy. I really need help with these - PLEASE.

There are links to each era on this page (as found on the old site plus a few updates) and a new section which focuses on notable staff and pupils from Barkers' Butts. There are actually MANY notable pupils who chased their own dreams and in the process made a name for themselves and I'll be adding more over the coming months but there are also those who were just adored in their own right and we want to include those too. There are staff members too who stood out and many served in the second world war - Alex Greenway actually served in both - lying about his age on both occasions!

Suggestions are very much welcome. Why not write your OWN appraisal on a person at Barkers' that you think fits the bill?

These are the relevant sections for each era at Barkers' Butts:

Barkers' Butts School - 1929-1939
Barkers' Butts School - 1940-1949
Barkers' Butts School - 1950-1959
Barkers' Butts School - 1960-1969
Barkers' Butts School - 1970-1979
