Care to share thoughts?

So far we've looked at grammars and comps. Loved Barton court. Hated spires!

Yes we are. We also loved Barton Court and liked Spires. We have also looked at St Anselms but didn’t like that. We are also going to looking at Archbishop’s and Girls Langton (depending on what Thursday brings)

What didn't you like about Spires?
We didn't like Barton Court

Yes, looked at Barton court last year to get a feel for it. Going back next week depending on results tomorrow!

We live out of Canterbury so anywhere else would involve two buses which I am not keen on.

I have a son and daughter both at the Langton schools , really nervous about tomorrow and what to do if my year 6 doesn’t pass tomorrow. I have not been to Archbishops yet , what are the entrance requirements ? Langton is our first choice but we don’t have a back up decided yet !

The heads talk at spires wasn't particularly inspiring personally. Building was nice though! I didn't love manwoods as much as I thought I would either! The decor looked very tired. The teachers seemed old fashioned imo.
