Thanks for the recent edit, i chuck this in the article now we've got most of the details. IMHO sir Joe didn't found the school, he paid for it with the cash from his will.... IIRC reception/the school hall had a list of headmasters, etc - I'm sure someone has some book.article.knwoeledge with details. Pickle 14:18, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Music

hang last i remember there were at least 2 full time music teachers, including the Mr Brealy (sp), the recent edit dosen't make sense - to me it implies there are no full time music teachers Pickle 02:18, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Infobox

Thiis school, as a UK school, should use Infobox School2, as Chatham Grammar School for Boys does. Gary Kirk [Talk] 08:15, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

the more i look at it, {{tl:Infobox Secondary school}} is wrong, but {{tl:Infobox School2}} is "deprecated", redirecting me to {{tl:Infobox School}} which further redirects me to {{{tl:Infobox School GB}}. Only Template talk:Infobox School has real substantial documentation, and I'm not convinced / persuaded which one is right (and I fail to see what features are gained from any of these templates.
