..and the person who has claimed they intend to harm children has provided his contact information? As as it's a letter being sent , even an address?

Any such threat and - even more so - any follow-up action, would completely undercut such moral position as former pupils may have. You will be tarred with the same brush. And you will be on hand as you are here ready to administer the tarring no doubt? You mean to write "any such threat *has* unde...

All School members were brought in to help the day schools - decorating, scrubbing your ink stains off the wood floors in Queensgate on Saturdays (yes, me, too) and in countless other ways. Out of interest, do any of the male ex-pupils remember being asked to do this, or was it just the girls? At C...

An interesting article linking two threads on this site - this one, plus classical music. http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2006/s1617989.htm The gist of it is that there is current interest in the idea that some of history's greatest music may have been written by the wives of the great composers -...

It's a shame SES does not teach philosophy

Caned for having honey with your yoghurt? I hope they're reading this. .....and for making sandwiches. It was forbidden to to put the lettuce or heaven forbid slice the cheese and attempt to make plain bread more appealing. The eventual beating would be for gross disobedience etc. I remember one ch...

Despite being fed loads of crap about Mozart by SES as a kid it's not a problem for me. I remember asking a tutor if Mozart was so devine why did he swear so much in his letters or remark that shitting and listening to Clementi were one and the same to hm? Tutor had no answer, he of course knew noth...

it's hardly a secret that Ruth Kelly is a member of opus Dei. She has spoken publicly of her involvement quite a few times, some think it influences her views on stem cell research. Im not sure what your blathering about Sam but Opus dei is an established organisation founded in 1928. here are some ...

So we agree, Keir. You really didn't need to launch a tirade to say that you concur with my view: dialogue with DB won't solve anything. (Note our reasons differ, yours being that DB is the 'voice of the SES', mine being that DB is perceived to be the 'voice of the SES'.) Regardless, we agree dialo...

Anyone remember or know anything about the woman who commited suicide by jumping off the the roof at Queensgate?

The teachers are influenced by the founder's dicovery of the Advaita Vedanta philosophy.

Teacher 100

The founder?
Which founder? The one that set up and personally oversaw a school that criminally abused children? Or the founder that had almost zero interest in Advieta?

To MM, May I ask what beliefs you feel you daughter has been subtly indoctrinated with? I am genuinely interested in your reply. I can guarantee this is not anyone's intention. Teacher 100 Monistic Theism? Naturally the beliefs of Advaita which as you admitted, the teachers are influenced by. Advai...

What is it you want??? Didn't really answer your question there. I personally want to belong to an organization whose aims and methods are entirely consistent with the ethical norms and standards of reasonable people. To this end, I believe that there has to be: - a sincere apology from the School ...

Posting up some more as I think it is very necessary to have as many members and ex members stories public as there is so little "truth" available on SES. hello Leon "Why do ?seemingly normal? people not intervene in cases such as the incident of the man having an epileptic fit? Good question, but t...
