I have done my best to clean up this article, and change it to fit Wikipedia normal typographical style. There were a lot of rogue characters, which I have sorted out for you.

However I have to say that it reads like an advertisement (with the text pasted direct from the school's brochure or something similar), and needs a lot of material omitted in order to adhere to Wikipedia standards. Rather than do that myself, I am recording my concerns here, and hope that sombody associated with the school will be able to decisively bring it to a more Neutral point of view.

I am a current pupil at the school and I don't read it as an advertisement however if you think it does please comment here and I will try to change it.

Lord Moran (Notable Former Pupil)

[edit]

The years (1910-1919) given as the time Lord Moran was a pupil at the school need correction as they are too late in his life; he was born in 1882, and during the 1910s he was completing his medical studies in London and then serving mainly abroad in WWI!Cloptonson (talk) 11:32, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I have corrected the dates and added a direct link to his article rather then to the title. Also put in the ref I used for the dates from Pocklington School's 500 anniversary project. Keith D (talk) 12:37, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
