Sheffield's favourite teachers: Residents reveal the teachers who made an impact on them in city schools

They say you never forget a good teacher.

And we have found out some of those who have made an impact in Sheffield over the years by asking city residents who they remember from their school days in the city.

We went out to ask residents who their favourite teachers were from their time at school here.

Charles Bell, who went to Castle College, said: "I can remember the name of one of my teachers, Mrs Turner. She was amazing because she understood what I was going through early on about language, so she was so supportive. That was in 2008."

Adrienne Brooks said: "It was Ecclesall School and it was a long time ago, Mr Ellis was very nice, but there were lots of people."

Sarah Griffiths, who went to Hartley Brook Primary School, said: "My favourite teacher was Mr Trevethick. He was an old school, old fashioned teacher, who had the best interests of the kids at heart. I have fond memories of him."

Robert Wild, who went to Sheffield City Grammar, said: "It was Mr Sanderson. He was our form teacher, plus he was also the sports teacher. He was strict, but he was good."

Joan Murray, who went to Coleridge Wood school, said it was Mrs Slack. She said: "She was right easy going, She was really nice, you could go and talk to her, you could really talk to her about anything."

Neil Hall, a former pupil at Herries School, said: "My favourite teacher was Mr Arch, who was a chemistry teacher. He was a very nice man who treated you very well, and really didn't talk down to you. He was on your level. He was a very positive man. I quite enjoyed being taught by him."

Tony Hudson, who went to Hammerton county junior school, Darnall, said: "It was Mrs Meads. She was lovely, friendly, It was a junior school so she made an impact on our lives."
