Good day everyone.
I already know that they are both excellent schools.Hoping to hear from people who know both schools.
what are the differances in attitudes towards learning and childs wellbeing, and general ethos of the schools.
Does each school have good after school activities such as music,drama outdoor activities.
Do the schools have educational specialties.
Many thanks for your responses.

Both are excellent, but different schools.
Southend has a very good language programme, and much curriculum time is dedicated to this. Both are very good in music, but being in the scene myself, personally feel that Southend has the edge in this as well.
I get the feeling that Westcliff is more well known for STEM, but then again, know someone who graduated from there and is currently a fashion designer working in a top fashion house!
Much for much to be honest, choose the one your daughter feels most comfortable in, and/or the closest to your house. Good luck!
