Bethnal Green Academy

Bethnal Green Academy, (where four dozy chits from the same year have decamped as jihad brides to Syria, the latest group of three are currently in the news) previously Bethnal Green Technology College, and before that Bethnal Green High School was formed in around 1997 when the all boys Danesford School accepted girl pupils.

Danesford School was formed some time after the war when Daniel Street School and Mansford Street School were amalgamated.

Former pupils of Daniel Street School include the Kray twins and most important of all, my dad.

At the age these girls are my father was fighting the Blitz on the East End. Sympathy? Nah! You have mistaken me for someone who gives a damn.
