Fair use rationale for Image:Kendrick.jpg
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Kendrick.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Do current buildings date back to 1877?.
[edit]The article makes the claim that the the current buildings date back to 1877.
I've no problem with the fact that the school was founded in 1877. However the original home of the school was Watlington House in Watlington Street. That building was taken over by its current owners (an independent charitable trust) in 1931, shortly after Kendrick School moved to its current site.
Admittedly, looking at the current site it seems likely that at least some of the buildings pre-date its use as a school. But it seems awfully coincidental if these buildings just happened to be built the same year as the school was founded on a different site. My suspicion is the author of the statement failed to understand this history, and simply assumed that the date of the buildings = date of foundation.
We need some hard cites to sort this out properly, so I've added a cite needed tag. -- Starbois (talk) 11:29, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
- Found a few cites, but nothing for current buildings. I've updated and cited. Also realised there were *no* previous cites, so I've put a refimprove on it. -- Starbois (talk) 13:56, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
Houses
[edit]Should a note be added to explain that Houses are a recent addition? I attended Kendrick between 1998-2005 and we did not have a House system. It might be giving a false impression of the long-term history of the school as it implies they have always been there. I'm afraid I don't know when they were brought in though! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.221.76.114 (talk) 16:20, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
