    That sounds a big school

    Can see problems there - hope it performs better than the one that's been built near us. Millions have been spent but it's not doing too well

    RE: Not really sure

    My mate is a teacher at holgate thinks they might build some of it on the old SR gents site and sell holgate for flats like the sixth form

    RE: I went there 1963-1970 nt

    first thing you learned was how to get out of a lesson with horace jarvis. there were two ways:

    "Sir, do you reckon the reds will win on Saturday?"

    "Sir, what was it like in the war"

    ask either of those, put your pencil down and listen!

    Hopefully it will work

    but merging two schools which have a different specialist status seems a little silly.

    Sounds confusing.

    If they keep two different sites then I would have thought they may as well keep both schools.

    Seems a little silly as to how they are work it otherwise as distance wise it would be difficult to get from one site to another for the next lesson in a couple of minutes.
