When did Mrs Dawson leave then? She's the only one I remember in the art school from the late 80's as she moved with us from Hertford.

Mrs O'C was known as Smith but I can't for the life of me remember his name...

I think it most probable that she was née Smith and went by surname only. I remember the call that went from one end of the Art School to the other: "Smith!"

Definitely Mike and 'Smith'. He was a great art teacher - really pushed us to live and breathe art, opened our eyes to the 'joys' of Bacon, Rothko etc.

Paul Deller, who was an Art Grecian at the same time as myself, Paddy Eason and others, is now the Head of the Art School, and continues to coax amazing work from his students.
