We're still looking at a range of potential sites in a number of boroughs and haven't yet abandoned all hope of securing the old King Fahad Academy for Girls site on Little Ealing Lane. Wherever we end up, however, W3 residents will still be able to apply to the school since we intend to admit a significant percentage of the children via a lottery, with any parent able to apply, regardless of how close they live to the school.

In answer to Thomas Barry's question about how many "idiots" have expressed an interest in sending their children to the West London Free School, the number currently stands at 958. And that's not a "prediction". That's a fact.

I accept that a school characterised by high expectations, academic rigour and strong discipline may not be to everyone's taste, Thomas, but I don't see why this choice should be denied to parents just because you disapprove of it. I wouldn't presume to dictate the choice of school for your children, Thomas. Why do you want to dictate ours?
