We're considering our options. We now have almost exactly a year to make that crucial decision. I spent a bit of time this morning looking at the web site of one option. I wasn't overwhelmed. It looks just like a bloody comprehensive.
I'm was not inspired.
Then out of curiosity I had a look at the wikipedia entry for the same school. If the job the that's been done on it is the work of one or more members of the current or recent past student body then I rather like their spirit.
'In my day' we had fewer outlets for our creative energy. How lucky today's students are, having wikipedia entries to subvert in the manner done to this particular High School for Girls.
Bravo!
Just add slake lime, then cook for a long as possible

Don't give too much credence to school brochures, websites, photos, reports etc etc. Visit the school, talk to staff and pupils, and go with your gut feeling.
Hi. Funnily enough I was only looking at the site in the hope of finding a map... all I got were a few rather rancid photographs in a slide show, some rather random information about the school's specialisation and a list of subjects.
Only when I went back to the search results did I spot the wikipedia listing. I suppose I must have read hacked entries before without realising it, but this one wasn't exactly subtle.
We're going to do the guided tour a least of the three that are top of our list; we just hoped we might get a quick peek at one today.
