NPOV statement about uniform
[edit]This sentence is totally biased, but I don't know enough about the subject to change it.: Paisley Grammar's previously high standards of uniform, upheld by then Rector John Pears, have changed for the better by Mrs Amos with children allowed to express themselves more. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.173.216.101 (talk) 17:44, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
^^^^ That line seems to have gone now, however the whole thing still has an anti-Amos POV. It makes her seem appalling, albeit in a completely different way from that in which the rector of my day, Sooty "The Boss" Corbett was appalling. Tindwcel (talk) 22:57, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
Fee paying?
[edit]A while back Paisleybuddie2 (talk · contribs) added the statement "the school was fee paying until the mid 1960's" (diff). Is there a source for that? I'd have thought the school was grant-aided in some way. - Pointillist (talk) 13:13, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
