I have, to date, enjoyed seven years teaching at Lorton School and watching children flourish in this increasingly rare environment which allows students to thrive both academically and socially. Visitors routinely complement everyone connected with the School for the well rounded, courteous and confident children they meet. As a teacher, I am keen to make the pupils of the School more aware of its history and why we as a school community share an experience so different from others both locally and nationally. This holistic approach to education, on which Lorton School’s current good reputation is based, has been around far longer than any of us currently working here, and I have been keen to discover its origins. As I studied the School’s log books and Mick Jane’s brilliantly detailed Lorton Far less is written about George General School – The Victorian History, it Oglethorpe. While plaques in the School became apparent that Lorton School’s rightly recognise the important approach to education was the legacy left contributions of William Alexander and by William Alexander and George John Wilson, there is no recognition of the Oglethorpe. William Alexander, I’m sure, thirty-three years of toil undertaken by needs little introduction; his contributions George Oglethorpe to transform Lorton to the School, both financially and socially, from an ailing establishment to one that are part of the reason why Lorton is one of students, staff and the local community Cumbria’s oldest surviving schools. were proud to be associated with.

One of his most notable schools, boasting an attendance average changes was the introduction of an of 95.6%. It was a moment of significant incentive for excellent attendance, pride for everyone connected with the elevating the importance of education in School; it inspired a poem entitled When the mind of the children and the local Lorton Won The Shield, written by former community. Farming work, sickness and headmaster John Bolton. Students of adverse weather conditions affected the Crosthwaite Boys’ School, the Shield’s attendance rate significantly, and previous winners, wrote a magnanimous academic progress surely suffered as a letter of congratulation to their Lorton result.

We, as winners of the shield last year, send our congratulations to you. We of course would sooner that we had won it again but we are glad it has not gone far away. Lorton School would retain the trophy for another two years. The improved attendance brought about the dawning realisation in both Mr Oglethorpe and Mr Alexander of the need to expand the School. Teaching over ninety pupils in such confined conditions was becoming increasingly impractical; both men saw the potential for more effective education that could be realised with expansion and they worked together for three years to raise funds for improving the existing rooms and adding a new room. leadership was recognised in a Report of Much of the renovation work was done, Her Majesty’s Inspector: or contributed to, by members of the local The School is worked in three groups, community with whom Mr Oglethorpe had and the principles of the New Code developed a strong bond.

  • My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership Number: 3812 First Fell Climbed
    My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership number: 3812 First fell climbed: Coniston Old Man, 6 April 2003 Last fell climbed: Great End, 14 October 2019 I was a bit of a late-comer to the Lakes. My first visit was with my family when I was 15. We rented a cottage in Grange for a week at Easter. Despite my parents’ ambitious attempts to cajole my sister Cath and me up Scafell Pike and Helvellyn, the weather turned us back each time. I remember reaching Sty Head and the wind being so strong my Mum was blown over. My sister, 18 at the time, eventually just sat down in the middle of marshy ground somewhere below the Langdale Pikes and refused to walk any further. I didn’t return then until I was 28. It was my Dad’s 60th and we took a cottage in Coniston in April 2003. The Old Man of Coniston became my first summit, and I also managed to get up Helvellyn via Striding Edge with Cath and my brother-in-law Dave. Clambering along the edge and up on to the still snow-capped summit was thrilling. A love of the Lakes, and in particular reaching and walking on high ground, was finally born. Visits to the Lakes became more regular after that, but often only for a week a year as work and other commitments limited opportunities. A number of favourites established themselves: the Langdale Pikes; Lingmoor Fell; Catbells and Wansfell among them. I gradually became more ambitious in the peaks I was willing to take on.
