Science, art, swimming and school elections all got our attention in a gallery of photos from Whitburn CofE Academy.
Here is a selection of scenes from the school and they span from 2008 to 2015.
They include the days when GCSE results were celebrated in November 2011 and the academy’s star swimmers lining up for a photo in 2008.
Artistic students lined up for pictures in 2010 and 2014 and the school’s young stars in science posed for photos, also 12 years ago.
Have a look and see if you can spot a familiar face.
And why not get in touch to tell us about events, schools, pubs, workplaces, shops and restaurants of the past which you would like to see in our retro section.
