Personally I’d disregard A level as a good number of students move on at that point. Focus on GCSE and see if that helps. I have a friend’s DD very happy at Dartford, many of the girls are local, but not all. She gets a lot of homework. I know some of DD’s friends who are at Townley and love the dance element but they find meeting up with friends a challenge as the school isn’t on top of a station or transport hub and whilst there are numerous buses and coaches it makes being independent meeting up with friends a challenge. Just a few thoughts there, good luck with the decision.
Thank you PettswoodFiona, that's very helpful. DD has this impression that pupils at Dartford are more serious about study and wants to go there. She is not into dance and music unlike her sister. She likes sciences and Maths and enjoys sports. And although she enjoys Maths and non verbal reasoning more she always scores better in English and verbal reasoning.
