CorenSearchBot Was absolutely spot on with regard to the first two paras: 1.1 Origins and 1.2 Relocation to Brixton. These have been substantially altered to remove any potential plagiaristic content and are fully referenced.

[edit] The school's name

It was an unpardonable solecism, certainly in my day (the early sixties), to refer to the school as either "Strand Grammar School" or The Strand School; it was always Strand School, or simply Strand. I seem to recall this was one of the first things drummed into us in first form. Certainly no old boy or former master would make such an error. I have accordingly altered the terminology where appropriate. Wingspeed (talk) 23:51, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
