Caludon Castle School
Caludon Castle School is an academy in Wyken, Coventry, England. The school was founded in 1954 as a boys' comprehensive school, but is now a co-educational 11-18 comprehensive school with a sixth form.[1] In September 2004, the school was designated as a Business and Enterprise College, by the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust.[1] The previous buildings dating from the 1950s were demolished to make way for a new £24 million PFI project resulting in the school being totally rebuilt.[1][2] The school is situated on a 67-acre (270,000 m2) site.[1]

gollark: Don't forget a laser on the PineTime Pro.
gollark: Better idea: you type Morse code for 0s and 1s using a button in the corner of the screen, and that's converted into ASCII characters.
gollark: I don't think typing Morse code into a watch without actually looking at the options onscreen is much easier.
gollark: That's ridiculous. It would be much more convenient to include a full 105-key onscreen keyboard for navigation.
gollark: In the UK we have universal healthcare. It's kind of inefficient.
