The following appears in The Tablet of May 3.
"The first Catholic state school in the country catering for three - to 16-year-olds opened this week. The £38-million St Matthew Academy in Blackheath was formally opened on Wednesday by Bishop Patrick Lynch.
The school will specialise in business and enterprise and is one of only six schools in England and Wales offering education throughout a child's career.
It was built on the site of St Joseph's Boys and Our Lady of Lourdes Primary School."
Can anyone imagine three-year-olds specialising in business and enterprise studies?
