Overall:
A newly created article that is long enough. Nominated within 7 days. The article is sourced and neutral, although the phrase "the City of London School which was created for poor children but is now one of the best schools in the country" is unsourced. Earwig marks two sources as Violation unlikely with over 20% of similarity, but it is just the names of people and institutions. The hook is sourced and interesting.

@Tbhotch: It's not quite clear what the issue is but, supposing that it's the point about the school, I have rewritten that bit and added a citation, ok? Andrew🐉(talk) 10:01, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
Yes, thanks, that was the issue. (CC) Tbhotch™ 04:44, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
