Langley is perceived to be the higher achiever and takes in a cohort that has a higher 11+ score on average. ( Langley has historically offered to 116/7 where Slough has historically offered to 111). I chose Slough over Langley 2 years ago due to the personality of my child and have not regretted it.... but Langley has a superb reputation.
I think it depends on your child and where you and she believes they will be happier.
It also depends on what strengths your child has...... if a school has a specialism then obviously there is excellent facilities/ teaching for that area which could benefit your child.

Up until this year, any Kendrick information has been scarce. This year we know a little more about the 11+, but unfortunately nothing at all about yr8 entry.
