[edit] Rewrite of 10th March

I intend to flesh out this article further with details of the School's history and its current activities. I felt a rewrite was appropriate to clarify the nature of the School's constitution and to allow for expansion under certain categories. Perhaps notable Old Berkhamstedians should come above the list of Headmasters, as the latter is rather long and the former more interesting!

Note to myself: imperative should be imperative--James 10:57, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Heads of School privileges

  • The Head Boy is supposedly entitled to graze a goat on the Grass Quad, smoke a pipe during lessons and park his car on School grounds. Marriage of the Head Boy and Head Girl is said to result in a house being purchased for them by the School.

As a Berkhamsted student myself, I can't agree that this is a "schoolboy joke", but understand that it might be deemed unreliable. Writing it, I purposefully included "supposedly" to indicate this. Perhaps other could give their opinions.--James 11:30, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I edited it out on the basis that while this may be a fact (or rumour) known to you personally, it's not externally sourced. MichaelMaggs 12:01, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
