We all have memories of our school days - whether good or bad, they stay with us for life.
These photos illustrate how much classrooms and playgrounds have changed over the generations since they were first published.
Long gone are the blackboards, and school uniforms look rather different today than in some of these archive shots which span the 1920s to 1940s.
There are some poignant images in there too from war-time, when youngsters played music in an air raid shelter to distract from the noises above ground.
