Some had their peculiarities which we all used to mock privately, but lessons had very little disruption and most students, at least in my classes/year-group, were generally well-behaved. Any deviants were usually rooted out and expelled within the first two years of attendance.
'Ziggy' for our headmaster; 'Billy D' for everyone's favourite PE teacher Mr Dawson; and, perhaps unkindly, 'Mrs Rather Fat' for portly RE teacher Mrs Rutherford were names kicking around when I was there.
