As children across Sheffield start school for the very first time, we have searched our archives to bring you these photographs of reception classes across the region in the 1990s.

Watermead Infants, Greengate Primary, Hartley Brook Primary and Hunter’s Bar Primary are just some of the schools featured in this retro photo gallery.

Can you recognise yourself, your child, or anyone you know?
