Alan was a wonderful, kind and caring Husband, Father and Grandfather. He was our rock.
His memory will live forever in our hearts, there are no words to express our sadness.
He touched the hearts and minds of thousands of pupils over 44 years in teaching, He always made learning fun, was passionate about his job and was "born to be a teacher".
Above all he took pride in everyone's achievements, always celebrated them and offered endless support and encouragement.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Mr Flaxman was my teacher at Brampton Road School in what would now be Year 6. I ended up teaching and becoming head of a secondary school for twelve years. I may well not have done that had it not been for his influence.
Miss you so much. You are always in my thoughts and always will be. Xx
Thank you for all the support you gave to my much loved brother and his family throughout his illness
So sorry to hear of Alan's passing which we only heard about after the funeral service.
A great friend and colleague with whom we spent some great times.
Alan and I shared some great experiences. School trips will never be the same again. He was a wonderful teacher who did great assemblies. It's been a long time but I have many good memories. He will be missed by friends and family. Thinking of you all today. Sorry I can't be there.
Sorry we can’t be there today. Sending love to you all and thinking of Uncle Alan and happy memories xxx

Thinking of you all. We had some very happy times together.
Such a joy to travel the world with Alan and Hilary. Always fun. Memories of Devil's Nose switchback train in Ecuador xx
So saddened by the news. Alan was a true gentleman and always a pleasure to share some time with. A great loss tp all who knew him.
Sleep peacefully, Alan.
In memory of Alan, a lovely man and good friend.
Thinking of you all. Alan came to Blackfield Junior School as Deputy Head, the youngest in the county at that time. He was a brilliant teacher, a wonderful colleague and became a good friend. There was so much fun to be had in everything he did...assemblies, games sessions, residential trips.
In true deadpan fashion, he once asked for "150 orange Juices, please," on the return journey from Westward Ho!, an Easter holiday trip with three coachloads of children. The cafe owner hadn't seen the coaches parked farther away, and was stunned. Just one of many happy memories.
Such a joy to travel the world with Alan and Hilary. Always fun. Memories of Devil's Nose switchback train in Ecuador xx
A typical smiling Alan
