EDITORS COMMENTS
The new generation of schools, Swinton, South Yorkshire, 1960. This print by Michael Walters takes us back to the era of post-war school architecture in Britain. The image showcases Swinton Secondary Modern School near Rotherham, a prime example of the prevailing style during the late 1950s and early 1960s. Built as a comprehensive institution with a sixth form added in 1960, this purpose-built school did not officially open its doors until July 1962. The photograph captures the exterior of the building, highlighting its clean lines and modern design that were characteristic of that time period. In this monochrome scene, we see a group of children gathered outside the school premises. Among them is an endearing young girl who stands out amidst her peers. Their presence adds life and energy to the otherwise static architectural composition. This image transports us back to an important chapter in British education history when comprehensive schooling was being introduced across the country. It serves as a reminder of how educational institutions have evolved over time while also evoking nostalgia for those who experienced this particular era firsthand. Michael Walters' photography beautifully encapsulates both the architectural significance and human element within this historical context.
