Sir James Smith's Grammar School, located on the eastern edge of
the town of Camelford in North Cornwall, offered quality education
to pupils drawn from village Primary Schools scattered over a large
rural catchment area. In the 1950s rural North Cornwall was marked
by relative isolation and social deprivation, but right of
attendance at Grammar School had come no longer to depend on class
and social status, and was vested both in an annual cull of primary
school pupils known as the "eleven-plus" examination and, more
indispensably, in a little bit of luck. Many were called but few
were chosen. Those who succeeded generally made decent academic
material, but were raw in terms of worldliness. A grammar school
road of seven years leading from the First through to the Sixth
Form and ultimate examination at "A" Level beckoned the victors,
only to have the wayside claim far too many prior to the Sixth
being reached. This book tells the personal story of one who walked
the full road, delighting in its wonders and humour, failing to
avoid many of its pitfalls, scoring low marks on one occasion in
manner and deportment, regretting things now and then, revelling in
School traditions while pushing at the boundaries a bit, coping
with the peculiarities, taking the rough with the smooth, and above
all benefitting from, and all too often battling with, the foibles
and attention of a Great Headmaster and his dedicated team of
teachers.
