There are a lot of schools in this list that are not independent, presumably added by idiots that don't know what independent means (and obviously didn't go to one either). http://www.scis.org.uk/schools will give you a good start, but there are some that aren't on that website (living water school in bellshill being an example) Tastyniall (talk) 11:05, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Public school

The term "public school" is absolutely used within Scotland. Having grown up and lived most of my life in Scotland, I would find it far more common for people to refer to schools as public and state, with public school meaning state school being an Americanism that is rarely used by the majority of the population here. And a quick straw poll has drawn unanimous agreement. I won't make the change as it is obviously a debatable issue but at the very least, the opening paragraph is misleading but I suspect it is simply wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.144.209.29 (talk) 19:25, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

The term public school wouldn't be used in England for most of these schools. Only the more exclusive schools Gordonstoun, etc. would qualify for the term.
