Talk:Heatherdown School

[Untitled]
Looking at the schooling of influential people sometimes reveals very interesting things.

Heatherdown was a very strange place. In some ways it has had as much influence on today as the public schools and universities many of the children later attended.

The early schooling of Hitler and Wittgenstein is another example. The co-incidence that these two figures should have attended the same school is remarkable: more so, because some argue that where the former was responsible for the killing of millions the latter appeared to do the same for ideas in the relativistic nature of his philosophy.

Some even argue that some of the intellectual foundation, in the form of relativism, was necessary to permit certain excesses of modern art. The apparent abandonment of responsibility in much of public life in the UK might also be underpinned by this.

The interesting question, in the case of these two, is about the school. So a similar question could be about Heatherdown and the leader of the UK Conservative Party. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.202.192.185 (talk) 18:18, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Personal views
Most of this article is somebody's personal views of the school. They are an interesting slice of autobiography, but not at all appropriate for an encyclopaedia. 86.142.245.22 (talk) 22:33, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

This article about School does not say when the school was founded — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zanganeh (talk • contribs) 05:57, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
