Schools
My deafness was not discovered till about the age of four.  After wasting the next three years at a local infant school in Stockingford, Nuneaton my proper education started in September 1951 at the 'Royal School for Deaf Children' in Edgbaston, Birmingham, a residential school just on the outskirt of the city centre. This school had an observation platform built on the playing field which overlooked the canel and a busy railway line where I spent happy days doing a bit of train spotting ticking off the engine number in my little book.  In September 1954 I was transferred to Needwood School for the Partially Deaf (also residential) at Rangemore Hall, near Burton On Trent which was opened in January 1954.
