Was Leeds Grammar School the first school in Leeds? Gunnar Larsson 18:31, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Deleting from his entry in Past pupils:
In fact he did not: you can piece together an assertion by him to this effect from letters exchanged in the editoial section of the London Review of Books, or you can take at face value assertions made by LGS in the Old Leodiensians report. I'm not sure where the idea that AB when to LMS originated, but I suspect it was here on Wikipedia. --- Charles Stewart 19:43, 26 May 2005 (UTC)
I participated in the e-mail correspopndence with Charles Stewart. The evidence that AB went to LMS can be found in AB's entry in Who's Who and in "Writing Home".
I've added a link to Leicester Grammar School and Loughborough Grammar School to the page, but feel it may be more apt for the LGS page to point towards this page, rather than it redirecting to Leeds Grammar School. EvocativeIntrigue TALK | EMAIL 20:25, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
Can cofirm that Alan Bennett was never a pupil. Is in fact our most famous person who was "turned away" by the school for not being intelligent enough!
There were not 3400n students at LGS. More like half that number. Looks like we have the Grammar School at Leeds number of students. -- Tagishsimon (talk) 17:01, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
yes, it's currently at approximatley 1500 for Leeds Gramar school on its own (senior section of the school)
What does "Nullius not mater disciplinae" actually mean? This question occurred to me when Gordon Brown quoted his school motto outside 10 Downing Street. What I recall from school (where I did not take Latin) is "Nothing IS not the mother of discipline". The Wikipedia entry currently says: "Nothing IF not the mother of discipline". Either way, I'm not sure I get the point. Is it: "Everything can be studied through an academic discipline"?
