Dartford Grammar for Girls thoughts about the school.

Hi. I don't know a lot about the school other than I know that out of catchment parishes are chosen by score. My dd scored 360, but had a bad day on the Bexley test (at least I think that's what I should conclude by the gap between her kent score and pass), and is 2 under on Bexley.

I know a bit about Wilmington and like it, but a bit worried about distance being approx. 2.5 miles away, so wondering if we should go and see Dartford.

Anybody got any experience of the Dartford for girls - I preferred the more pastoral feeling Townley to the other 2 Bexley grammars, if that helps guide as to what we are looking for in a school. Worried that selecting on mark suggests it might be a bit too full on for my slightly down on herself daughter??

Thanks in advance for your advice and experience.
