:::: Are you complaining about the entry? It correctly describes the sisters' instruction as a less formal school setting. It was very different from the [[British]] prep schools.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 17:51, 29 February 2008 (EST)

:::::I appreciate that you are trying to reach a solution on this; and I have seen the Brighton/Hove school described as a 'dame school', different in approach to the Ascot prep school. But a bit of 'pre-schooling' by a nurse or governess does not equate to home-schooling as the majority of c'pedians would (in my possibly inaccurate opinion) use the term. I was 'pre-schooled' in such a way by my parents: I could read and write a bit by the time I started school. But there is no way that I would ever describe myself as home-schooled, not for ideological reasons but because I simply don't see that as home schooling; and nor do I about Churchill. His formative educational years were spent at schools. [[User:Koba|Koba]] 17:57, 29 February 2008 (EST)
