May The Force be with boys at Sir William Borlase's Grammar School in Marlow

Until 1987 this was a single sex grammar school for boys.  Today I was walking round Marlow and I looked up at this wonderful plaque with its improving text from the book of Ecclesiastes, chapter 9, verse 10:



Throughout my education, a Christian education, I was never, not once exhorted that 'Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might'!  Instead we were counselled against such things!

How different, then, for the pupils at this Buckinghamshire school!
