Just Wilhelm

on BBC Radio 4 FM

How could a radical German school survive in England right through the Second World War? Incredibly, the Herrlingen School did just that. Fleeing Nazi persecution, it transferred lock, stock and barrel to Kent. Despite losing many of its staff and older boys to "enemy alien" camps, it continued until 1948. Matthew Reisz, whose mother was one of the few English children there, meets some of its former pupils.
