Derby School
Like the pics ... this article gets better and better Victuallers 21:52, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

I think you will like this .... try WP:GALLERY as a solution to your pictures problem. One thing that DSschool does have is a lot of lists (Wiki says articles should have < 30% of lists. If you want to see a "good article" about a school then look at Westfield High School (Fairfax County, Virginia) ... not surprisingly it had a lot of attention recently and contains some good ideas.

 * Thank you for your message, Terry. Very good pictures, I agree with Victuallers - and I'm also happy with your ideas for more. Regards, Xn4 09:14, 11 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Good morning! They are great pics. I hope you don't mind, I've created a separate section for the new gallery, as it looked so odd coming in the middle of a section and in the middle of the page. Regards, Xn4 07:59, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Terry, I was just looking at oldderbeians.org, and I've noticed its 'History' page is still a wide open space - if you're a registered user there, I wonder if you'd like to suggest or even add hyperlinks from that page to our articles here, Derby School, List of Masters of Derby School, and List of Old Derbeians? No doubt if someone had the time to sit down for a few weeks with all the printed sources, he or she could do a much better job than we have, and indeed I've read that Alan Bird (1960-67) is working on a new history, but that 'History' page has been saying "History of the previous and current schools coming soon" ever since the site was opened! If oldderbeians.org has someone working on an article for their web site,, perhaps we might gain a useful new contributor here. Xn4 00:11, 28 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Regarding oldderbeians.org, I am currently in the process of overhauling it. We do have an "old" history page content which is based on some standard society text. I will make sure we link to the Derby School related articles on here. Hopefully when we get the new site and its content up that may be of some use to you.
