Talk:Derby School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In creating this page I note that according to the 'Old Derbian' a history is being written. I suggest that the writing of that history might be made easier if it were carried out here on wikipedia, possibly branching off to a detailed History of Derby School page. More details of each era might also be gathered on pages such as Derby School - 1960's. Though there is a danger of going beyond the normal bounds of an encyclopedia with such information, Wikipedia provides such an attractive way to gather information on a famous school that I cannot see such an approach being seriously challenged by Wikipedia editors (space on Wikipedia is not a problem). Personally, I would like to see an account of past teachers and what became of them. --Lindosland 14:52, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I've contributed some of my memories of the school from the later 60s and early 70s. I agree with the idea of a project to capture some of the personal history of this school which, I'm sure, played a great part in many boy's lives. I don't currently have an account on Wikipedia, Terry Booth (Derby School, 1965-1972)
