BFES was established by the British Government with the first schools opening in war-torn Germany in November 1946 under the direction of John Trevelyan CBE.

In the late 1960s teachers and officers employed under the auspices of the three Service Education Corps (Army, Navy & Royal Air Force) were brought together under the umbrella organisation Service Children's Education Authority (SCEA). SCEA was headed by a military Controller (Colonel or equivalent) who changed every two years.
In North-West Europe, schools were operated by Service Children's Schools (SCS-NWE).  In 1996 SCEA and SCS-NWE  combined as Service Children's Education (SCE).

In the 1980s the organisation had schools and offices in 127 locations world-wide.  Some three-quarters of these were in West Germany.

I wonder if anyone can help in identifying the school that I attended when we lived in Ronsdorf. We were bused in to it each morning from the married quarters in Am Knokel. This would have been between 1959-1961. My father was Col Sergeant George Robert Turner in the Royal Green Jackets. I have one school report but it just lists it as Wuppertal. In hopeful anticipation. George John Turner

Hi George, if you were of the right age at the time, it would probably have been to the block pictured below, which was in Buller barracks, but is now part of a university. I also lived in Am Knochel and attended that school, albeit a little later than you. In fact my last year there was the last that it was used by the British. I remember "volunteering" to clear the building during the Summer holidays as it involved smashing up furniture. The sports/football field was out of shot, to the right. See also this previous thread. https://bfg-locations.editboard.com/t1823-looking-for-old-school-barracks

Well thank-you @Pborn4 for this.

I was OC RHQ Troop 25 Engineer Regiment in the early 1980's. I got married in 1984 and my wife joined me in Osnabruck. She was a Junior School teacher and determined to carry on working so as soon as she arrived she contacted the Marlborough School, which was just round the corner from our MQ, and got a position with them.

So imagine our surprise and delight to follow the link above to BFPS schools, go to the Marlborough School page and one of the staff pictures from 1984 had my wife in it. My wife says she can remember every one of the staff in the picture.

Many thanks for the memories!
