[edit] Assess for Schools
good "Start". Alumni present. Refs required. Suggest adding ", London" to the end of the name to avoid confusion with Ankara. We shouldn't be anglo centric... Victuallers 10:17, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] info
No mention or discussion of the school's history, charavter or drug problem? What about famous ex-students? Or anything more than the most basic and banal information? This is pathetic.There are also some factual errors in the description - the attached primary is also part of the Lycee.
Since the above respondent was clearly deeply vexed by the lack of information, why didn't he simply edit the page? This fellow should learn to be constructive, and not simply be content to criticise.
What about the nursery school in The Boltons in the 40s and 50s? When was it opened and closed? I did not go there myself but had friends who had been. It is not mentioned here - who remembers it? Nicholas Newman (talk) 01:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] famous alumni
I have been tracking down the school's claims to certain 'famous alumni', in particular Michael Grade, Anjelica Huston, Natasha and Joely Richardson, and Zoë Wanamaker. I cannot find corroborating evidence on the Internet; so I have emailed the school's alumni service. The following is their reply (original in French, translation below): "Merci pour votre message. Je peux vous confirmer que ces memes noms apparaissent dans la brochure officielle du Lycee mais il n'y a pas de source. Cette brochure a ete faite avec la collaboration du Proviseur, donc j'estime que ces faits sont vrais !" "Thank you for your message. I can confirm that the same names appear in the official brochure of the Lycee but there is no source. This brochure was made with the help of the Proviseur (i.e. Headmaster), so I would assume these claims to be true."
Could someone with a bit more time on their hands run with this? Philbradley 09:41, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
