Singer Jessica Ellen Cornish, known as Jessie J, attended the school from 1999 until 2004. Comments she later made about gang-related gun and knife crime and racial attacks at the school were described by Rehling as "just wrong"; he said that he and other staff were unaware of any such incidents.[1]
