It was a pleasure to receive this email from a member of the public today.  Well done, I am a proud Headteacher:

Had the pleasure of sharing a tram with your pupils on my way into the city centre this morning. They were naturally boisterous and excited but without exception perfectly polite, impeccably behaved and a credit to the school.

I’m an ex Old Basford lad myself, having attended the school from 1961 to 1967 before going on the High Pavement Grammar School, then Liverpool University and Nottingham University prior to a career as a teacher in Nottinghamshire. Now happily retired and a governor at my granddaughter’s school. I have nothing but happy memories of my time at Percy Street. Give me a pretty good start in life I think.

Well done staff and pupils and wishing you all every success in your future endeavours.

Regards,

Mr XX
