Grounds
Wheatley Park, when described, often is assumed to be a private school with its extensive grounds, superb history and subjects on offer including Latin and politics. The school is currently improving facilities on its site. A new mathematics block was opened in 2004, and a building for the John Watson school, with which Wheatley Park School is affiliated, was opened in September 2006. The school has recently opened its technological and eco-friendly John Milton English and Media Centre.

Famous quotes containing the word grounds:
“Christ and The Church: If he were to apply for a divorce on the grounds of cruelty, adultery and desertion, he would probably get one.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“Our intellect is not the most subtle, the most powerful, the most appropriate, instrument for revealing the truth. It is life that, little by little, example by example, permits us to see that what is most important to our heart, or to our mind, is learned not by reasoning but through other agencies. Then it is that the intellect, observing their superiority, abdicates its control to them upon reasoned grounds and agrees to become their collaborator and lackey.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“The best persuaded of himself, so crammed, as he thinks, with excellencies, that it is his grounds of faith that all that look on him love him.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
