* '''Keep '''- per previous consensus. In reference to queries above, one’s school can be quite defining and highly notable. For example, when individuals become highly successful despite having attended a very poor school then that is often considered to make their success all the more remarkable. On the other hand, there are often many politicians who campaign against private or selective education, despite having benefited from said systems themselves and even sending their own children to the same types of schools. Such controversies alone have began defining elements of the careers of some such individuals.[[User:Shakehandsman|Shakehandsman]] ([[User talk:Shakehandsman|talk]]) 19:06, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
