These pictures from our archive show classroom days from the 60s, 70s and 80s in the Steel City, when things were done a bit differently.
They include the young ladies of Ecclesfield School in the 80s attempting the handbell ringers world record attempt, and a lovely shot of Sister Nativity of St Patrick’s RC Junior and Infants School in the 70s.
There are other sights not common these days - like the children of Gleadless Valley School looking at Turkish pipes on a visit to Istanbul.
Other schools featured in our photo gallery include Abbeydale Grange, Central Tech, King Edward VII and Tapton Secondary schools.
