In the 1970's ,at Warwick University, trainee Teachers could do a ten weeks of beekeeping as one their three 'extra Curricular' courses of their professional training. We were encouraged to start beekeeping in schools, to get young people interested. Our eldest daughter did such a course at Myton School Warwick, under the guidance of one of her teachers, Peter Spencer of the Warwickshire beekeepers Association. Those were the 'good old days' before Health and Safety took such a firm hand in our lives.
