Abstract
Clissold Park School, in 1969, has close on 100 pupils in its upper and lower sixth forms. Yet this school is situated in what has been termed a socially depressed area and a cultural desert. Near miracles have been achieved on the academic side in terms of CSE, O level, A‐level and even University entrance. In my eight years of service here I have played no direct part in this academic transformation scene, so I can fairly state that one has taken place. In such a situation one might well ask, ‘Of what use are Statutory Leavers to the School?’ The question that has been asked is a different one. It is, Of what use is this School to Statutory Leavers?
