Information - School Days Of The Rich And Famous – talk by James Thellusson
Welcome to the Ipswich Institute!
Members and non-members are welcome to join us for these sessions
Was Boris Johnson a troublemaker or a teacher’s pet? Was Alistair Campbell right to call the royal family ‘thick’? What happened at the Rugby School riots? This talk looks at the school days of famous Brits – from Queen Elizabeth I to the current day including comedians, poets, politicians, rock stars, royals and entrepreneurs using historical material including their school and university reports to paint a humorous history of British schools.
James is a freelance writer and speaker. His book – ‘School’s Out – truants, troublemakers and teachers’ pets’ (‘An utter delight…’ Harry Mount, editor of the ‘Oldie’) is available now. He is researching a 2nd edition and attendees are invited to bring their own best and worst school reports and experiences to share at the end of the talk.
