wow. guessing there's some poetic licence from mylondon and the clapham bid want some more money/help, but doesn't sound good.
was always a bit lively but was more drunken poshos being sick rather than serious violence.
That's not far from me. I suspect there is more than a little hype and exaggeration going on there.Just saw this on Twitter.
'Lawless' London high street where people are mugged as they leave pubs

Apparently violent and gun crime is really out of control around Clapham High Street.
Sensationalist bullshit.Just saw this on Twitter.

Clapham High st is no more dangerous than any 'popular' night out area.
Maybe if they'd invested some money in updating the building, the school may have been more attractive to parents and their children.PRIME piece of land. It's probably got all sorts of Church covenants protecting it.
Surely these sort of modern flats require one to chose between lifestyle and having children.You would have thought that with thousands of flats being thrown up in nearby Nine Elms there would be a demand for things like schools.

If it's the one located in Tulse Hill. Yes, I think it's true....don't think them residents plan on hanging around to raise kids tbh.
...in other news i am hearing from the street of another prominent school closure.
unsubstantiated rumour but if true this one stinks to high hell and deeply shocking for peeps that know...
crikey anoher one then, it's looking like a trend, this one is in north brixton and has been in the news before.If it's the one located in Tulse Hill. Yes, I think it's true.
Is it the secondary there?If it's the one located in Tulse Hill. Yes, I think it's true.
There's been a falling birth rate, the LEA has been aware for some time that the drop in student numbers was coming.You would have thought that with thousands of flats being thrown up in nearby Nine Elms there would be a demand for things like schools.

Yes. Girls school.Is it the secondary there?
Oh, really??? The girls school is quite popular!Yes. Girls school.
It is.If it’s st Martin in the fields - when we were looking at potential secondary schools just over three years ago it was substantially under capacity then. Surprised me as we liked it and does well in terms of academic results
The Archbishop of Canterbury is always keen on social initiatives - such as food banks and credit unions run in churches.PRIME piece of land. It's probably got all sorts of Church covenants protecting it.
Seems they could have joined forces as both single sex schools.Both are faith schools. No one has any faith any more.
When are they closing? ATS closes this summer, students decanted elsewhere.It is.

i bet Tricky Skills remembers it.
Not sure. But soon.When are they closing?
I suspect the only covenants would be if whoever sold/gave the land when the church moved to Oval in 1920s imposed any. I don't think the school site is part of the former garden of St Mark's vicarage.PRIME piece of land. It's probably got all sorts of Church covenants protecting it.
took a risk putting a museum and tourist attraction slap bang on the river opposite St Pauls/The City and between two major train stations? it wasn't exactly a backwater.See it around the Tate Modern. Once that went up developers fell over themselves to build flats. I like the Tate Modern but I am increasingly disliking the area around it.
The Tate took a risk to set up the Tate Modern. Once it succeeded the developer moved in to cash out on it. Developers are a form of parasite.
