EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from May 1956, we are transported back to a classroom at Lancastrian Infants School in Chichester. Three young girls, their faces filled with curiosity and excitement, sit attentively around a wooden table. The room is adorned with the trappings of education - an old-fashioned blackboard stands proudly behind them, waiting to be filled with knowledge. The girls' uniforms reflect the fashion of the era - neat pinafores and knee-high socks. They seem engrossed in their Monday morning lesson, eager to absorb every word from their teacher. One girl leans forward slightly, her hand resting on the edge of her chair as she listens intently. This image captures a moment frozen in time; it encapsulates the essence of learning in the 1950s. The simplicity of the classroom environment highlights how education was once stripped down to its core elements - a dedicated teacher imparting wisdom upon eager minds. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Chichester Photographic Society Collection, this photograph serves as a reminder of our educational heritage. It allows us to reflect on how far we have come while appreciating the timeless value of knowledge and growth
