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

actually
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!
