The School Site
Because the school used to be two separate schools, the buildings are quite a distant apart. There are two entrances from different sides of the site. On Langdale Road, there is the entrance to East building (the former Queen Eleanor's), and opposite Meadway there is an entrance to West building (via. Canesworde Road). The most recent addition to the school was 'Central' building in 1999.
Due to the site previously being two separate schools, there is some duplication in rooms across the school. There are, for instance, two gyms, main halls and canteens. Until the completion of Central building there were also two staff rooms; one per building.

“The scope of modern government in what it can and ought to accomplish for its people has been widened far beyond the principles laid down by the old “laissez faire” school of political rights, and the widening has met popular approval.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“The site of the true bottomless financial pit is the toy store. It’s amazing how much a few pieces of plastic and paper will sell for if the purchasers are parents or grandparent, especially when the manufacturers claim their product improves a child’s intellectual or physical development.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
