Hi,
our DS had an assessment at St. John's prep school in Potters Bar and is offered a place.
I am just wondering what is the general opinion about this school? Any thoughts would be welcome.
Cheers
mahesh

Very minor school, not got a very good reputation in Herts. Have heard bad things about the head and also I believe the facilities are not very good. Think it would be a last resort for most people.

Also look at Manor Lodge between Potters Bar and London Colney near junction 22 of the M25.
