Schools 14:52 - Mar 1 with 8380 views | Spaceman_P | I'm sure a post of this nature has been done before. But as QPR fans we more or less have roots to West London and its suburbs. Which Schools did you all go to? Fond memories etc or the contrary?. I went Douay Martyrs in Ickenham, had no other choice due to moving to the area.... not a fan of the school but the time of my teen hood was okay and I had a laugh. Interested to hear bout everyone else's schools. |  | | |  |

Brackenbury Primary School and then Holland Park Comprehensive. That was an experience! Became a primary teacher and worked at Lena Gardens and Queens Manor. QM too close to Fulham for my liking. Now a Headteacher in an adjoining borough. No QPR fans in the school population despite my hard work. |  | |  |

Schools on 19:54 - Mar 5 by queensparker | That’s called Ark Franklin these days and seen as the school all the new loaded transplants to Queens Park fight to get into. Amazing how the whole area has changed My kids are about to head off to QPCS, alma mater of Ozzy Kakay. Anyone go there? [Post edited 5 Mar 19:55]

I was wondering how many Ark schools there are now! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ark_(charity) I didn't realise either that Ark is an acronym. |  |

I didn't go to that school but I know it pretty well because, as an adult, I played 8 a side football there on Thursday evenings, for many years. I went to Aylesbury Grammar School. Man, did they work you hard! I used to have a ridiculous amount of homework My mate's brother also went to AGS. He was in a punk band and one of their songs went: "I'm going grow up to be a s3x p3rv3rt, It's the only thing I learned in an all-boys school". Make of that what you will. My experience there was pretty dull in comparison, but then he was in a lower year to me... |  |

The free place was probably the reason the monks left me alone. Quite a few Rangers and Brentford fans, the wannabe bullies went to Stamford Bridge. |  | |  |

Latymer playing fields are still there right? I thought for years they were on the cards for some kind of sale / development. |  |

Nope, there are several of us on here. The scrubs run or the round the river run. I preferred the latter as there were places you could stop for a crafty smoke. |  |

No QPR fans in your school? What's wrong with education these days? |  | |  |

lovely pitches the old latimer playing fields, played against you lot 3 times when i was at QK. won one, drew one, lost one. the pav across the road has been my local since 1975, even though i live in the bush now, the only remaining pub in that area is still my favourite, except match days before the game, but straight back there after. and yes, the latymer playing fields are still there. |  |
