	Hugh Laurie Press - Dragon School (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		With Keith Ingram ('Inky'), he was co-headmaster of the Dragon School, Oxford for 17 years from 1972 to 1989, and an emblematic figure of one of the most successful and the most original educational institutions in Britain.
		One of the Dragon School's proudest boasts is the families who have sent 10 or 20 or, in at least one case, 50 members to the school over the generations.
		For the first hundred years or so, the Dragon School tradition was perhaps best defined as being the centre left of the British upper middle class, although no one there would dream of putting it that way.

		However, independent schools are largely self-governing and are not required to comply with all legislation covering schools maintained by the State.
