Is at the Dustbin of History.
Well done that man.
Really rather interesting D2's take on that super school.
I've no real idea whether a school as big as this can work,
Interesting because when he came around here to comment he stated that he'd been to one larger. D2 may not be to everyone's taste and he is known to have some strange ideas but I will concede that he is educated. So one of the two statements is a tad light on the actualite there.

three things really clear up the confusion;
1) I thought it was larger but a little bit of research reveals that actually it probably wasn't; it was more like 1500 pupils.
2) We had more or less unlimited space, which the Peterborough site doesn't
3) About a third of the pupils at my school had basically no interest in education and nobody was really interested in educating them, because they were farmers and once they had reached a sufficient level of education to fill in EU subsidy forms anything more was wasted (RS Thomas' "Iago Prytherch" refers). The EU forms have got a lot more complicated since then though so I wonder how they manage.
Other than that, just a case of me being more charitable and intellectually modest than I really ought to be, as usual. I'm a bit like Bukharin that way.
