Mr Gregory (popping head vens)

ROFLMAO @ Mr Winch being beaker raftl raftl I always thought that he looked like one of the muppets.

Mr Dimolo was a goon

Mr Rooke was cool as was Miss Whitehead. She moved to lower to teach English when I was in year 7 & 8

Mr Wimpress moved form teaching History to ICT and always thought he was an asshole.

Miss Wardle!! Fook me, hope I never see her on a dark night....definately creepy

Best thing Mr Campbell ever did was smash his head on the blackboard.

He was in the middle of telling us how sh*t we were despite being the top maths set. He was standing about 2 ft away from the blackboard, probably thought he was nearer. He said, '5A1' in his typical desperate whispery voice, then went to lean back and *SMACK* Tears rolled down his face at the pain. A class of 15/16 year-old tried to contain their laughter. He left the room (maths mobiles had little hallways between). We could hear him saying stuff like 'jesus!' and I don't think he was praying lol. He then came back in to a class which by that time laughter had completely ruptured out. 'That wasn't funny' was all he could say.

Mr Astubury was a complete a** hole... I didnt like him one bit.. The power got to his head when he was Deputy Headmaster at the Lower School. This was when Mr Rushton was Head Master of the lower school when PHS was split between to sites. I remember getting blammed for something i did not do nad tore into me on the thought i was lying and to be even a complete utter arse reduced me to tears and then his cunning plan used the tears to rip into me even more to finnally get a yes out of me but i just took it on bored and never spoke to him or answered him ever. I got the impression dont show your scared and you will be fine.. I hate park high as shit running thorugh snow and glad i didnt do as i did cause i couldnt of cared less.. Anyway its a by gone era and its now 2008 move on i say!! laugh

That reminds me (running thorugh snow) - they used to make us play netball when it was snowing. I was a skinny waif back then and used to get so cold my hands used to turn blue. Then people would make fun of me for having blue hands. School can be such a nasty place to send your children lol.

Just reading some of the posts above.. Mr Wimpress hated my guts cause i knew more than him about computers laugh also as well as Mrs Tennent. Ahh the good old days... I was the computer geek in school knew everything about the system they used Novell laugh what a piss of piss that was.. They upgraded the computers when i left to Research Machines Connect dunno if they still use this pile of shite but you could say i was a pain in the arse when it came to IT.. I remember rerouting one of the servers to access the internet through the Wirral Met's back bone and everyone enjoyed a good surf on the internet when i was in class i was a Pain hehe laugh

When i was there, i left in 1984 i think, Lower school head was Mr Woodgriffiths, insisted on walking round school with a cigarette permanently and Mr Vose, who was in the dance scene in Chariots of Fire, was deputy head of lower.

For maths i had Mr Bult who was a cool teacher, growled at you if you got something wrong.

English teachers i had were Mrs Potter who i hated and Mrs arghh i cant remember nice Indian lady.

Biology was Mr Malone who fancied himself and once caught me when i fainted due to illness, honestly tease

Chemistry was first Mr Griffiths then Mr Hedley r.i.p who was a brilliant teacher and a sad loss

Physics was Mr Kinsell or egg head as he was cruelly called, loved his Moggy Minors

I had Mrs Semple for art and Mrs Evans

Mr Taylor for Geology im sure he was secretly a mountain goat cos the places he took us on field trips were hair raising as Miss G will tell you

For French i had Miss Bramhall with her marvellous nails

Oh and Mr Rigby for geography.

Then Mr Hopson was head of upper school....loved that cape

Then there were the infamous pupils :s

I went to Park High from '87 till '92, i quite enjoyed my time there actually lol
Form tutor - Mr Buttery
English - Mr Hurworth
English Lit - Mr Carr
Science - Miss Ramsey (strange!)
Dr Botton
Mrs O Hara
DT - Mr Buttery
History - Mrs Jones
IT - Mr Ainsworth
PE - Mrs Lancley, Miss Spencer
Art - Mrs Semple
Maths - Mr Campbell ( proper lost the plot!!)

But i do remember other teachers such as Mr Rooke, Mr Peck (catalogue man 1972!!) Mr Rushton was in charge of lower school.
Mrs Oakden, she made my life hell in lower school cos i couldn't draw a hand, lol for my next homework my dad did it for me and she slated it, i think gave it an F, so parents evening they had murder with her,that all children are not artists and hows drawing gonna help me get a job?? Lol I did take it GCSE and got a C!!
Mr Gregory is probably rocking away somewhere in a straight jacket now, Mr Maguire was married to Miss Elding he was our year head.
Mr Wood-griffiths was deputy head and often said 'i will bounce you wound the room like a wubber ball'!
And Mr Hopson would strutt into the hall with his cape on. Somewhere along the way Mrs Holt appeared and she was a cow from hell, you always knew where she was because of the stilletos she wore cos she was small.
In our 3rd year we got a new french teacher Madame Tuilier or something like that, one day we were going to bunk so we arranged to meet at park station and go to New Brighton, we all hada change of clothes in our bags, so the train came and everybody jumped on, i waited to let people off, and she was the last person off, i coulda died, she asked where i was going and said i was going to be late, the train pulled away with all my mates waving and i had to walk back to school with her,the shame!! But cos i had only packed clothes i had none of my books so got a detention. I didnt bunk again!
Anyone remember Mr Lynch? He left in 89 in suspicious circumstances, he was dead fit, he was a science teacher.

Went from 1982-87.

Great school I loved it. Loved going into the Park at dinner time and playing football. Also during the winter using the metal trays from the canteen as sleds on the snow.

cherry pie i recognise loads o fthe teachers you mentioned - think i was in the year above. remember mr winch for chemistry? was a pervert who looked like beaker from the muppets.

my fave teacher was mr martin - he was ace. even though he did grab me by the scruff of the neck one day because i called him Hamish lol he hated that nickname. though he was probably nicer than Mad-dog raftl

This was my school between 1990-1995, the school itself was great, but I hated my time there because I was bullied literaly every single day for the whole 5 years, pushed me close to suicide on more than one occasion...But, now I'm older, wiser and stronger minded, so in a way it's made me who I am today. My name back then was Colin Tresidder in case anyone remembers me
