We had desks with inkwells in in the second year juniors.
We still wrote in pencil in our books but we had a special pen and ink book in which we wrote every Friday.
Why only once a week I just don't know!
That went on for a term then for terms two and three we were moved individually towards writing in ink in all our books.
So by third year juniors everything was in pen and ink - well, except drawings ;-))

I don't remember much if my first 2 junior schools. Due to moving house twice, I was only at them both for a few weeks. The 3rd one was newly built and modern. I think we used pens all the time there.
