I make an error in my comments. I left the school in 1959.I left the area in 1964! But most of these were among the staff I knew. The head was Nunn and deputy as to his right, Bray and the one to his left was O'Connell, a senior master. My favourite was front row. extreme left ( how suitable!) - Jo Symonds, he had a fairly distinguished military career (Major I think) but never hid his far left politics.
Not sure how or where I got this image. If it turns out I nicked it then I apologise unreservedly!

I was a teacher at Stationers' from 1964 to 1983 and knew Joe Symons well. I was never aware of his political leanings, which, as far as I know, he kept well hidden during those years. I remained friends with him after he retired, and politics was never mentioned. If you had asked me what I though his political leanings were, I have said old-fashioned Conservative.

'well hidden' you say which, given the change in time does not surprise me at all. Nor indeed would a change in his leanings anyway. One thing he would not have have lost was his ability to teach recalcitrant kids!
