Looks like 1950s or possibly early 60s.
Looking through the large window on the right, you can make out a lampshade, that type was used in many schools in the 50s/60s, it's just a case of narrowing it down. I think the photo shows two infant classes.
That's me on the back for, second away from Mr. Hardman. In front, the Fisher triplets
Recognize - top row: Linda Dearnley, Janet Flannegan, Second row: John Turner, Christopher Reeve, Eileen Alker, Maureen Porter, Iris Statham, Bottom row: Dennis Woods, Jimmy Churton & Rodney Brockley.
Teacher on far left was Miss Kay if my memory serves me correctly. 4th from left in middle row was Derek Grundy , far top right was Pat ???. I think i was on bottom row in middle with striped shirt but could be wrong. I also recognise Trevor Rhoden, Barry Turner and Rodney Brockley.
some of you may remember me, i lived a sheltered life!!!
I can make out Christine Bold, Ann Neal, Susan Chapman and Pat Sherrington in addition to those already mentioned. Think the other teacher was Miss Fryer?? Year would probably be 1960/61. Look about 7/8 years old.
Elaine Tunstall and Angela Eatock back row. They look about 7 so that would make it 1959
Second row from back,at the side of Fred Hardman the Headmaster is Austin Haselden
