Reading Blue Coat vs Reading Grammar
Posted: Thu Dec 19, 2013 11:36 pm
Posted this on Berkshire forum too, but this may be better place to ask the question:
Anyone chosen Reading Blue Coat over Reading Boys? If so why ? Aside from the question of free vs fee paying, all things being equal, am curious if people think Blue Coat is more sporty, has more extra curricular (and so more rounded), less rough and tumble (since they also interview so can filter beyond a mere test) and less academic than the other? I am honestly trying to decide between them as looks DS may get into both in year 7 (from prep school). I have no pre-conceptions about either as I don't know either very well.
