grammar school s such as Quarry Bank High School andLiverpool Institute for Boys . In 1954 all but one of the boys in one of the top stream classes was able to gain a place in such high schools.At the age of 11 years
John Lennon went on to Quarry Bank High School andGeorge Harrison to the Liverpool Institute.Recently, John Lennon's widow,
Yoko Ono , donated £30,000 for school refurbishments.External links
