Did Anybody Go To King Ecgberts?

I did, but only for year 7 until end of year 8. :rolleyes: I had a bit of a disagreement with a few of the teachers and we thought it best I left. :o I'm 23 now, nearly 24. Can't be bothered to work out what years that would have been.

My son attended between 1990 & 1995 and didn't care for it. I think I know what he meant as it appeared very bland and without any soul to me. He attended Totley County prior to moving up and that was a very friendly and welcoming place.

 

He made a lot of friends at Ecgberts that he keeps in touch with and none of them have fond memories of the place. What I noticed is that on leaving Ecgberts most of his male friends (himself included) went through a multitude of career changes before settling on a job that they liked. So from a parents pespective I consider it to have been lacking in direction, things may be different now.
