I was at Bourne Secondary Modern from 1949 to early 1952. I remember the headmaster, Mr Forbes and some of the other teachers i.e. Mr & Mrs Tibbles, PT master Mr James, my form(2G Upper) teacher Miss Arden, who married Mr Fosse and returned to school after the summer holiday as Mrs Fosse. I also remember some of my classmates, "Bog" Brown, Ray Argles, Edith Senior, Norma Hosma, Bernice (Benny) McCarthy. It would be nice to hear from anyone who was at the school up to 1952.
