Caterham School VS Reigate Grammar School

Post by capsulemum »

Hello there,

My DD got offers from both schools. The distance from home to both are similar and we like mixed schools. My daughter is artistic and creative but not sporty. She is one child so it is only one time decision for us.

I would very much appreciate your comments/suggestions/experience on both schools....

Thank you so much.

Hello Ladymuck,

Thank you very much for your recommendation. I very much appreciate it.

For the school run (as we are doing right now as well), I will drive my DD to school and my DH will collect her in the afternoon. I totally agree with you Caterham's facilities are far better than RGS. My head has told me to go for Caterham; I can see what's I'm paying for. My DD (a little bit) preferred RGS after the interview because deputy Head talked to her and asked her to recommend books for her niece! Then the Head talked to applicants in a group of 7 followed by 15 mins-interview by a teacher and the teacher is very much interested in her ballet and piano. My heart has told me it should be RGS.

I will visits both schools again next weeks. Thanks for information you gave us.
