Re: Chesham Grammar School
Well I believe the school has changed (for the better) considerably in the last 6 years, let alone the last few decades!
Sports: Yes CGS does often lose sports matches to the 'all boy grammars' - not unsurprisingly as CGS is co-ed so half the boys to choose from(but I do recall the last time my older DS played football against DCGS, Chesham won , convincingly!). They do compete very favourably against other local co-ed schools.
Music: There is indeed a lot of peripatetic support/encouragement to play a wide variety of instruments, there are House Music and Drama competitions and every year there is an excellent Music production.
Exam results: excellent & improving year on year - I think details are on the CGS website.
Hope that helps

Re: Chesham Grammar School
Hi
I have got a friend whose son attends Chesham Grammar and thet are very happy with the school.
I went for a look around at their open evening earlier this year and was very impressed with the pupils, teachers etc.
If my son passes his eleven plus I would be very happy if he gets a place there
