The author, Brinley Cenydd Erricker, was a pupil at the school from 1917 to 1923. He was captain of Rugby 1922–23, and captain of Cricket 1923. He passed his ‘Highers’ in 1923 with two distinctions, then entered UCW Aberystwyth with a scholarship.

B.C. Erricker grew up in Foundry Town and was a contemporary of R.W. Francis, who became our physics master, 1947–59. Brinley became Senior Maths Master at Leyton High School, N.E. London. The two High Schools in Leyton no longer exist, instead there is a sixth form college and contributory schools.
