Other Alum

I don't remember anyone mentioning James Arthur (he's from Saltburn which would be quite a trek) however, I do question listing people like Bob Mortimer as an alum since the H/E he attended was not Middlesbrough College rather one of those it subsumed and replaced. I feel that Middlesbrough College (which proudly trumpets him as a former pupil) is going a bit far because it's hardly the same place, it's not on the same site and I suspect that very few of the teachers made the transition. Seems a bit of a stretch to me. 82.24.18.184 (talk) 17:03, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

The normal practice is to include those from previous incarnations of the college, unless they have a separate article. Usually, the section is divided by the name of the institution at the time the people went to it. Keith D (talk) 23:47, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Query

Moved from article. Keith D (talk) 23:37, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

Middlesbrough High School became Middlesbrough and Marton Sixth Form College in 1974.

I don't think this is correct. I was a pupil at Middlesbrough High School until 1976 (left at the age of 18) and it was still called Middlesbrough High School at that point and WAS a High School not a comprehensive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.23.92.167 (talk • contribs) 17:09, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
