They didn't teach domestics. They only did that up at the secondary moderen up the hill, the frightful proles.

It was mixed but I've no idea if the girls did domestic science,
They never allowed us anywhere near them at playtime.

My secondary education was at two private schools via the Assisted Place scheme. I passed the entrance exam with one of the highest marks, at age 11.
So no, there was no buying my way in, and I aced the equivalent exam to the 11 plus.
SO THERE!
