There was no thought of my going on to further education. When I got to the top class, X7, two of the older boys were studying for the Grammar School examination, but presumably their parents were better off than mine. I wasn't entered. In fact, when I was twelve and a half I was put in for the ‘Labour Examination’. I went down to Wigan on a Saturday morning and I had to answer written questions and oral questions. I passed it and so I left school.
