| 2 | Anonymous | I am surprised that this Teacher would WANT to go back to this school, as it would have been the Governing Body of this school that agrees to his sacking, I would like to see any comments from thier Chair as to why they never backed him? |
| 3 | Andrea Francis | ex pupil, would not be where i am today without the help and support of Mr Aldridge, more than just an excellent teacher. |
| 4 | Evelyn Roblin | Taught my three children, a great loss to the school. |

| 8 | catherine james | he is the best teacher ever!!! and there is no reason why he shldnt be allowed to return to work he was my head of year and he is very much missed by all the pupils in year 10 of olchfa comprehensive school. Also well done to the person who started this petition and i will be telling lots more people about it... |
| 9 | susan james | Mr Aldridge is an excellent teacher, who genuinely cares for the education and well-being of the pupils. My daughter is a pupil in year 10, and when she endured a facial injury and was off school, he contacted us on a daily basis. He is greatly missed. |
| 10 | M. Gill | Olchfa witchhunt - Mr. Aldridge is innocent. As far as I am concerned everything is based on hearsay and school politics. |

| 13 | Jo Williams | I fully support what you're trying to do. Mr Aldridge was a fantastic teaher. Are they mad?! We need more teachers like him! |
| 14 | Geraldine Rees | Anyone who knows Dave Aldridge is disgusted at the way he has been treated. His professional life is totally without blemish and for Olchfa to lose a teacher of his calibre is a travesty. |

| 26 | Sue White | Mr Aldridge was my form tutor for 5 years while at Olchfa, and was a professional man whose mild manner and approachability left a lasting impression on me. It is a shame there are not more teachers like him. |

| 32 | A.M. Jenkins | Why is the "system" allowed to destroy this genuinely decent man and his family with impunity? |
| 33 | Daphne Hanna | Mr Aldridge is a very well respected and thoroughly capable teacher who was held in high regard by his pupils. If only there were more teachers like him. |
| 34 | Thomas Hanna | Great teacher. Must be reinststed at Olchfa asap |

| 39 | RUSSELL SHARPE | THANX TO MR ALDRIDGE OUR DAUGHTER COMPLETED HER EDUCATION AT OLCHFA DESPITE HER ATTEMPTS TO DO OTHERWISE. THIS IS IN NO SMALL WAY TO THE PATIENT AND EXTREMELY DEDICATED AND GALLANT (WELL ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL) EFFORTS OF MR ALDRIDGE WITH WHOM WE BECAME QUITE WELL AQUAINTED DUE TO OUR FREQUENT VISITS. ITS SADDENS ME TO THINK THAT SUCH AN EXCELLENT AND VALUABLE (SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE) TEACHER HAS BEEN CAST ASIDE. SHAME ON YOU OLCHFA. THE VERY BEST WISHES TO MR ALDRIDGE FOR HIS FUTURE |
| 40 | MRS MARIS SHARPE | As a parent of four children who have all attended Olchfa School I have dealt with Mr Alldridge on a number of occasions both as a teacher of Mathematics and Head of Year. Mr Alldridge has always acted professionally. He has always treated the pupils of the school with patience and respect above and beyond the call of duty. I feel it is a shame that Olchfa school did not treat an innocent experienced teacher with the valuable support he has shown to countless pupils over the years. Both the Year group (he was head of) and the pupils in his Mathematics classes have been affected by Olchfa's decision. |
| 41 | Anonymous | I am currently a pupil of Olchfa school and mr. Alrdridge taught me for 2 and a half years. He is a fantastic teacher and a good person. He has shown undying support to the school German exchange and given up much of his own time to help pupils. |

| 43 | Anonymous | As ex-colleagues of David Aldridge, my wife and I fully support his reinstatement. His dedication and professional approach to teaching was held in high regard. |
| 44 | A.R.Thomas | The injustice is evident!!!!!!! |
| 45 | Demi Morcom | Mr Aldridge is my current but absent HoY and Im deeply saddened to hear the news of his suspension, and the current issues going on are most unfortunate, I really hope this willl work, and Mr alridge will return to teach at Olchfa School. |
| 46 | jenny protheroe(bowen) | a great teacher,taught me in 1980 and was a super head of year to my step daughter 1998-2005.always there to help,dedicated,a lovely gentleman.It seems absolute madness to dispense of a teacher with his experience and comitment . |

| 48 | ALLEN THOMAS | Being an ex Olchfa school pupil I was shocked to discover how badly Mr Aldridge is being treated. Mr Aldridge was instrumental in helping me pass my Maths O Level in the eighties and I don't understand why the school powers that be have sacked him. He's a first class teacher and well liked. The police have cleared him of everything and I would very much like to see him reinstated. And sooner rather than later because i'm sure that the pupils are missing his teaching skills and knowledge. |
