![]() So am I right to assume that you are also related to Anne? I was in the same year as Anne. Hi just thought you would like to know I saw Gweneth Harris just after xmas she looked just the same as she did in the 1970's when she taught me, she was at my sister in laws funeral, my sister in law used to work with gweneth in the youth club at Earl Marshal in the early 1980's dont know if you remember her, her name was Tracy Littlewood The difference is that they now lock the gates after a specified time. The kids still transfer from what was Earl Marshal Campus to the new bit (I remember doing the same thing but popping home for a quick snack). The only thing left is the tree that stood in Owler Lane primary top play area. I got back to Sheffield every so often and its still weird looking at where Owler Lane primary and the old block of Earl Marshal Comp stood now stands this new building. Hinde House, Herries had reputations as well. However, if I remember correctly some of the other schools e.g. Yes, the school had a reputation and it was the cause of a few "rucks" when playing other schools at football, basketball etc. Also, there was an active youth club which was handy for me as I only lived across the road I went twice and had an absolutely brill time both occasions. Also, don't forget those school exchange trips to Laragne, France. Managed to get my "A" levels (admittedly not the grades I needed at the time but life has a way of turning these things around) did load of sports (no chance of that now), and got into music in a big way (thanks Mrs Parish/Gweneth Harris whereever you are). there was some good teachers, mr blakey, mr stow,mr caborn, and gorgeous mr tanner!wud love to know what became of them all and whats become of the school?is it still there? i wasnt very brainy but my sister acheived 9 gcse's while there. We have a student-led culture where teachers and students work together to enable independence and achievement, it’s definitely a partnership.You were probably in my year, i went 78-82,? i didnt find it a bad school, i thought the headteacher mr bullivant was very strict along with math teacher mr thornton ( who iwas terrified of! )and miss driver. “It’s a lovely culture at the College, it’s a much more adult environment than school. Why do you think the courses at NHC are a good choice for students? We work with employers and provide advice and guidance to start you on your first steps, so by choosing something you’re passionate about, you are already making those first few moves towards your dream career.” On our programmes, it’s like the first stage of your career. “Do your research, speak to the tutors and make sure you pick a course that you really are passionate about. If you could give one piece of advice to someone who is thinking of studying at NHC, what would it be? It’s great to see students take ownership and lead the workshops they deliver in primary schools.” It’s so rewarding, as we see everything that we have worked on over the year come to a final presentation. ![]() For example, in Travel & Tourism, we go into primary schools with the students and deliver workshops to the pupils, including a dance performance and some learning activities. “I love the events we do at the end of each year. What has been a highlight of your time at NHC? The dynamics and energy they bring into the College are fantastic, you just can’t beat that buzz! I work with the students to give them structure, which in turn gives them drive and motivation to achieve their outcomes.” I find working with young adults to be really fulfilling because they inspire me and make me consider my values… they help me question the way I think. I enjoy watching others develop and succeed, too. “I love seeing people on a personal journey and the success they find along the way. What inspired you to become a teacher? what do you enjoy most about working at the college? ![]() It’s the best job satisfaction watching the students flourish and progress into what they want to do.” I saw some real successes in this role one of the students I taught was homeless at the time and she’s now turned her life around and is a paramedic. I loved the challenge of that job as it was so fulfilling watching those types of students be able to meet their needs. “I was a teacher at a college in Luton for 9 years and I used to teach disengaged and troubled young people. ![]() What did you use to do before joining North Hertfordshire College?
