In 2014 it was reported that the school, despite not being of independent school status, was making regular forcible requests to parents for 'voluntary donations' in order to provide the facilities pupils needed, with parents contributing monthly, usually around £60. The school justified these requests by saying that state funding was not sufficient to provide a sound education and "the polish for boys to go on to the best universities

Effectively excluding those who cannot make those "donations". Still, in fairness, they have done well. The downside is that if they turn out people like Bonzo, they are definitely doing something wrong :-D
