I don't recall anybody getting an 11+ Cert at my school in Notting Hill, London, but that was in 1956. Perhaps they had run out of paper by then!

Too early for me but I was at Stanford from 1954-1961, my brother was there from 1944-51. We lived in Dyke Road Drive. It was a bit mortifying to have someone send me the class photo from 1961 and see how little we all looked compared to the same age group today!

I remember a Philip Mead who lived in Dyke Road Drive. I used to walk home from school with him very occasionally, and then continue up the road to Port Hall Road where I lived.
I agree with the comment about the early photos. Happy days!

I passed my 11+ in 1951 but don't remember any certificate. I can remember being in the school hall at my school, Moulescoomb Juniors, and being surprised when my name was read out. Out of 52 children in 4A (yes enormous classes) 48 of us passed. What a credit to those teachers of those hard up years. We didn't have homework at Moulsecoomb but we did behave in class, no parent came to the school deriding a teacher for chastising a wayward pupil.

Geoff' even more mortifying would be the school play photos "A Midsummer Night's Dream" in which we both had parts! I do not recall an 11+ certificate in 1961 when I "graduated". As I still have all my Stanford School reports I would have thought that I would have retained a certificate had there been one.

I went to Stanford Road Infants and then the Junior School in 1935-1941 when I was evacuated to Heptonstall in Yorkshire. Miss Parks and Miss Jenks came with us and Miss Jenks taught at the Heptonstall School. I gained my 11+ which I took before I left and went first to Hebden Bridge Grammar School and then Varndean when we came home in 1945. Does anyone remember the house opposite the school in Stanford Road that had a model railway in the garden and also the rag man who gave away goldfish at the school gates? Mark you, I don't suppose there are many of us old pupils left now.

Did any of you know Miss Gunn? She now lives in my care home Meadowcroft in Shoreham-by-sea, and will be reaching the grand age of 100 on the 22nd February. I was trying to get some of her past pupils to attend a birthday party on the day at 3pm. Anyone who would remember her and would like to come, please email me on rachel@meadowcroftcarehome.co.uk. Thank you.

I went to Stanford Road school From 1945 to 1948. I can remember the house opposite with the model railway in the garden. I lived in Buckingham Place. I now live in Lincolnshire.

I went to Stanford Rd school 1935-1942. Miss Goldring was our teacher. My school friends were; John Reynolds, Dennis Watts, Jean South, Stella Pet, Daphne Brown and Charlie Siddal who tragically died in the bomb at Scarborough Road in 1940. I have fond memories of my days during these years. I would be grateful to hear from anyone who remembers me.
