Afterall does it really matter the headteacher used to say to everyone
somebody from The English Department must teach
Computer
Science .. as you can imagine nobody jumped for the job apart from me My connection was my work full time for a computer company called IBM and I had lived in America in California so I was there at their beck and call.
Get the car out .. pack the boot . take what you have got in the cupboard .. and go off to Bishops Waltham and do it ...... was the command from across the hedge ... so I agreed.
I arrived punctually as usual, parked my car, unpacked the boot, and took my papers into school and was directed directly to the
Computer Science Room. What a relief to get it all done ........ a lecture on Computing and How I worked in Computer Science for a number of years .. I had to do a brief practical and used it as all English teachers do .. talked about the technical language of Computer Science .... great
memories and memories are made up of teaching ... Computer Science at Bishops Waltham in Hampshire many years ago .. great stuff!
