. „ .. ;= Much-loved former teacher is remembered with fondness


byPippaMuneoHebden www.clitheroeadvertiser.co.uk Tvwtten ©clithadvertiser


A celebration is being held for the life of much-loved teacher and former deputy head of Clitheroe Royal Grammar School, Edward Carter.


Itwill be held for Ted, who died on April 10th, aged 71, on Tues­ day (April 23rd) at Clitheroe Parish Church at 2 p.m. Ted,whowasbominPreston


on January 6th, 1942, was the grandson of a Preston North EndLillywhitel In i960, he went to the Uili-


versity of Liverpool to study Classics, a fortunate decision in many ways, as the subject formed the basis of his life­ long career in teaching and it also gave him the chance to meet ayoung mathematics stu­ dent Valerie Matthews whom he married on Boxing Day in 1964. They were fond of talk­ ing about they went to the fa-


‘ mous Liverpool Cavern Club when The Beatles were only a supporting group. ■ Ted applied to Clitheroe Royal Grammar School (Boys) for a teaching post in Septem­ ber 1964 and was appointed by former Headmaster Gerry Hood. ■ In his early years of teach­


ing he was heavily involved in running the Scout Troop for 16 years, taking the boys on trips all over Britain andtothelnter- natiorialScoutcampatKander-' steg in Switzerland.


Edward Carter. During his time at CRGS, he


and his wife Valerie had three daughters, Helen, Sarah and Clare. Valerie started working part-time at the school teach­ ing A-level Statistics. Then in 1980, Ted was ap­


pointed Head of Classics at the girl’s grammar school so he moved up Chatburn Road. It wasduringthis period thatTed took Val to seethe ruins ofPom-' peii. Not only did he manage to make himself understood to the Italians by speaking Lat-. in, but also by being so knowl­ edgeable in his explanation to Val that they found a group gatheredbehindthem thinking they had found a proper guide. In 1985 when the two schools


amalgamated to form the new mixed-sex grammar school, Ted was appointed as Head of the lower school. In 1989 he


wasappointedDeputyHeadln charge of the main school (n - 16) on the Chatburn Road site, where he was much-loved and admired by all his pupils and fellow teachers. ' Ted retired in 2002. He will be remembered with enor-


. nious fondness by his stu­ dents, who loved his lessons and found him an inspiration­ al teacher. As Deputy Head all the students appreciated his


' interest in them and valued - his kindness and support. Af­ ter his retirement he contin­ ued his connection with the


,. school by acting as clerk to the .governors. Ted will also be remem­ bered for his passion for walk-


; ing. So many people recall happy memories of meeting him,striding up Pendle and, only last summer, he boasted of completing the Three Peaks in nine and a half hours with daughter Clare and her hus- bandMartin. Ted also helped and support­


ed several local groups. After moving to Rimington in 1985, he became treasurer and loyal supporter of the local football team, who have dedicated their recent successes to him. He was apopular memberpf


the Clitheroe and District Cal­ edonian Society where, in addi­ tion to doing the audit, he and Val could try yet another form of dancing to add to their suc-


, cess at ballroom and jive. He also decided to learn Ital­


ian and achieved a Grade A at GCSE after only one year and the following year he passed


Italian at AS level. For the past few years he has been co-ordi-


• natoroftheUgAItalianconver- sation group.


His extensive knowledge in


so many areas made him a re­ al asset as a team member in quizzes. Ted’s joy was always in'his


family. His pride in the achieve- ments of Helen, Sarah and Clare was immense, in their graduations and their suc­ cessful careers. Helen shared his passion for Classics and dancing and he was delighted with Sarah’s year-long student exchangeinBeijing and Clare’s amazing two-and-a-half-year round the world trip. He was delighted with their choice of partners, Mark, Alex and Mar­ tin and alipve all he adored his granddaughtersSophieandAl- ice and relished their weekly visitswhenwithmamusingbit of role reversal in their games, he was put in the role of “pu­ pil” whilst they instructed him and made him “behave”, before serving them ice cream. Ted’s own fondness for ice cream made him an expert!


■ Generationsofstudentshave reasonto thank himforpassing on some of his vast knowledge. Until very recently, he was still teaching a weekly class at Sales- buryCEPrimarySchooLEvety- jane who was fortunate to have Ted as a colleague or a fiiiend admired him and he will be much missed by many, many people. He was a truly kind and honourable gentleman who was always happy to help everyone.
