I agree KatherineB. I find it difficult at the moment because DD1 goes to an upper school. It’s a very good school and we love it. She is doing very well but when I tell people which school she goes to, people say ‘why didn’t you send her to a grammar school’? It is hard for them to believe we chose an upper school over a grammar.

A lot of families near Waddesdon don't bother with the 11+ and ditto those who live near Thame and Brackley with good comps.
