Re see also[edit]

I've restored the entry in the "See also" section, as it deals with a teacher who received media coverage for actions that were directly related to this school. Drj0710, I fail to see how this is "not relevant", as your edit summary put it. Would you mind explaining your rationale? /wiae /tlk 13:54, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I know the school have worked extremely hard to improve the their reputation since the dismissal of te reference to this headteacher and keeping this piece of information I feel could have a negative and detrimental impact on the school, the staff and the parents ..I don't think this piece of information is relevant anymore. I don't claim to know about your rules but and cannot understand why you are so keen to have it on there.

Well, in this case, the see also refers to a former teacher/headteacher who was in the news (see e.g. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationnews/7927095/Head-teacher-used-school-funds-for-Australia-trip-DIY-and-pink-champagne.html, http://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/8346408.Former_deputy_headteacher_banned/ and http://www.miltonkeynes.co.uk/news/head-sacked-but-she-s-set-to-appeal-1-857602) for actions directly related to the school. That seems like the textbook definition of "relevance" to me. /wiae /tlk 17:56, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Drj0710: By the way, do you have any connection with the school? If so, you would have what Wikipedia calls a conflict of interest. It's usually not a great idea to edit an article when you have a conflict of interest, since such editors generally find it very difficult to write neutrally and dispassionately about the subject. (Indeed, some of the information that's been added to the article—especially in the "History" section—looks like it could be there to promote the school.)
