Anybody have any useful information/experiances positive or negative regarding appeals for Sir Roger Manwood's School in Sandwich. Any info
gratefully appreciated!!!!!

Thank you

The school is located in nice surroundings. However, I would advise your child (especially boarding) against it if he/she is from an ethnic minority background. The school is known for its support for discrimination. We raised concerns 10 years ago and even now they have refused to look into it.

I have not heard of any problems recently, there are children from a wide range of backgrounds.
several of my friends have children there and seem quite happy.

Racial discrimination of any kind is appalling and I'm sorry if you and/or your child (or anyone you know) experienced it at the school. However, it was ten years ago so surely it's time to move on?
