Barry Summer School, 1960’s

We have a piece in preparation to looking forward to the 50th anniversary of the first Barry Summer School. Can anyone accurately fill in the gaps in this little history – the dates of the successor schools, all  very significant  pillars in the development of musicians and of a core audience for jazz in the UK. And let us have your best story too. E-mail or comment, either is fine:
