The William Parker link is in error. The contemporary jazz musician or another namesake William Parker, 4th Baron Monteagle are surely not the intended link, despite the laters near contemporaneous lifespan to the intended William Parker.

Might therer be some mention of the catchment area - Hastings - and other schools locally which compete for pupils?

Sion jenkins, former deputy head, actually forged his qualifications to obtain the post. you may wish to mention this.

following in the tradition established by that other noted alumni, Grey Owl, then.

[edit] Assess

A good start but not quite a B as you are lacking references. Some of the non-encyclopaedic content (staff lists and school uniform details) should be cut out. Come back for a re-assessment when you have some more refs. Have a look at some of the other B class articles. Dahliarose 17:32, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Religious affiliation?

The "Religious affiliation" box says "Christian (links with Diocese of Chichester)" Is this correct? Although tracing its history to foundation by a clergyman, and having voluntary controlled status, I can't trace any specific affiliation, and it's certainly not a church school as such. --rossb 23:42, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Since no-one has commented on this, and noting that the current words were inserted with no edit summary by an anonyomous user who has not contributed for some time (so cannot be contacted), and that the Ofsted report describes it as "other", I propose to revert it to "none". --rossb 17:42, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
