Removing maintenance notices

I'm a little surprised that there isn't more written about a school this size but I've added some items to the History section based on news reports over the last few years. The report on donations to stranded tourists during COVID-19 only mentions the school in passing so does not constitute significant coverage, but the two reports on free places for Ukrainian children both do, as does the inspection report of course. On that basis I think we have three sources that satisfy SIGCOV and therefore satisfy that aspect of WP:GNG. Because we now have multiple references, I'm also removing the "single source" tag, although much of the information about the school does still come from a single source.

There's much more that needs to be done to bring this article up to scratch. I'd like to see more of the early history - how did a primary school for 7 children grow to an all-age school for over 400? - and something about the facilities and buildings. I would guess these might be available from planning documents etc. but I'm not sufficiently familiar with the subject to find those.

Hopefully I've done enough to rescue this article for now though. Waggers TALK 12:58, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I should add, there's a high likelihood that the news reports I've mentioned are based on press releases put out by the school and are therefore not truly independent of the subject, so I think we still need to find some genuinely independent sources. Waggers TALK 13:02, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
