    Agree with every word mate. That must be a first.

    Seems like retirement suits you.

      Cardinal Vaughan, London Oratory, even Gunnersbury. Parents of all faiths queueing up in their droves to get their boys into these schools. Because they're catholic? No, because they top the tables in exam results and discipline. Unlike the sh.itehole state schools

                    Very good point about the system turning a blind eye to inner-city schools but until that addressed parents will head for faith schools, understandably so. The same thing is happening at Twyford ( C of E) rather than send them down the road (and closer) to Acton High

                        Would you be denying it the opportunity to be top of the class?

                            Has it really gotten that much worse? I was there maybe 10 years ago for a couple of years when I got back from Lebanon and they'd really started improving while I was there. Can't have gone down the sh1tter again that quickly can it?
