Ringo Starr was damned with faint praise in a school report that described him as ‘quite capable of making a satisfactory employee’.
The underwhelming endorsement of a boy who would go on to global stardom is included in a collection of Beatles memorabilia now being sold.
AE Virr, headmaster of Livepool’s Dingle Vale Secondary School, also wrote: “During his stay at this school he has made some progress at his work... his conduct and personal appearance have been satisfactory.”
