This site is a big "hit" in the UK. It is been in the top ten UK sites (from
Guardian) for some months now. I'm not sure if it is still the case, but for
a long time it was ran from a family’s "front room". It got some flak last
year due to a number a spurious comments made about teachers. But it appears
to have weathered that storm:

It also lists primary schools... if you can remember that far back.

It has every school in the UK listed, by year of leaving, so you can add
yourself to your school and leaving year and see everyone who's signed up
already. There are about 50 people from my grammar school year signed up -
there are a *lot* of people already involved in this. Anyone who went to
school in the UK might find it interesting...

(...) What do you mean, if?? I still have all my boxed classic space lego from this time to remind me. Ah, fond memories of the 918, 924 and 928 fleet attacking my next door neighbour's yellow castle, those knights never stood a chance..... Mark (...)
