[edit] This infobox is far less comprehensive than 2ndary school infobox
The Secondary school infobox as used across the board on GPS, CAS and ISA is far more comprehensive and streamlined than both the Aust school infobox and the Aust school private infobox. I compel editors to read my talk on the Sydney Grammar School Page before adding this infobox rather than the - in my opinion - superior Secondary School infobox.

[edit] Field defintions
It would be very helpful if someone who understands the intentions of the fields here could list their definitions. For example, what does "type" mean? A recent edit [1] changed its usage on one particular school substantially, but I'm not sure which usage should be considered correct. -Harmil 14:21, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Contact details
I notice that an anonymous user has added Phone and Fax to the template. Surely these are nonencyclopedic. I have removed them. If you think they should be reincluded, please discuss it here. Blarneytherinosaur talk 02:41, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Country
Is this template for Austrian or Australian schools? Yvesnimmo 22:54, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- Judging by the number of articles about Australian schools that use this template [2], I would suggest that it is the later. Blarneytherinosaur talk 06:09, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] enrollment -> enrolment
This field is currently misspelt and really should be fixed. Per Wikipedia:List of spelling variants, (or User:SpNeo/Spelling_Guide#-l-.2C_-ll-) "enrollment" is an American English variant. We really should use Australian English here. Lots of articles to be fixed though. —Moondyne 09:15, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
- Fixed, by your local grammarian. Ltwizard 18:32, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Campus Section Question
Just wondering if it is appropriate to place location of different campuses in this section for when there is more than one. Exodus87 13:50, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Captains
I feel very uncomfortable about having the names of school captains included in this infobox. Schools have to gain permission before publishing the names of minors so I don't feel we should be publishing them here. They don't add much to the infobox anyway and are a target for vandalism. Thoughts? Loopla 02:12, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- 100% agree, and well, is it really encyclopedic? probably not. Twenty Years 08:28, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Template:Infobox school
Is there any particular benefit this template has over {{Infobox school}}? -- Chuq (talk) 22:58, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
