Mr Dunlop Geography? (Known as All Dun!!)
Lex Dunlop Maths?? (Another nutter with the belt)(I've got a story about that.. maybe for later!!)
John Dunlop taught History,Geography and English and what was to become Modern Studies( I still believe he was the cleverest teacher in the school)
Lex Dunlop taught English, he moved from Ardrossan Academy to become the head of English at Stevenston taking over from a Mr.MacLean ( first name might have been Donald a pretentious erse complete with creepy acolytes )
Ian Snead apart from a Technical and Woodwork Teacher was a Photographer

Mr Collins prior to arriving at Stevenston came from India stayed at the top of MacGaven Park in the 70s
There was a Mr.Whyte........ English ,occasional History and Geography who emigrated to New Zealand

Hi, I am new to this site. Following on from this post, I was wondering if anyone knew if Ronnie Payne, science teacher, is still alive? He was a friend of my father and I was hoping to get in touch. thanks

The Maths Teacher, Mr Malloy slapped my Sister Jean on the head for some reason or other. When she got home and told my Mother she waited outside the School for him the next day and did she give him a telling off . End of subject !!!! In todays education she would have had to go to one Dept. after another , probably end up in jail ha! Ha!

My mother ripped Mrs,MacMillan (Her husband was the bank manager at Nineyard St) in Louis Boyds,
To be honest I think there was a bit of previous(as they say) from their school days
