I am so sad to hear that Doreen has died. She was my form mistress in the 1970's when I was in Lower Four S and she was a very kind mistress. I was also the Form Captain in that year. I remember a group of us used to go to her house at the University of Bath on an occasional Sunday afternoon. She also wrote a book called 'Jenny at Durrington Grange' and signed it for me. I still have this book to this day.
I went to see her a few years ago when she had moved to Batheaston when I managed the Royal School Archives and it was like all the intervening years had melted away. She was a wonderful teacher and I am so glad that I knew her.
