Offer Tonbridge Grammar but DD wants Weald

Post by piggymom »

Dear all,

Are there any family whose daughter could have offered a Tonbridge Grammar School place but had chosen to study at Weald of Kent instead? We have some personalities / environment issue here and want to discuss someone who went through this privately. Would appreciate if you could pm and we chat further.

Best,
Piggy

We know several girls who have been in this position. The schools are I understand quite different in terms of feel, academic profile in Year 7, sport and obviously the 6th form The girls all chose Weald although they would all have got into Togs. As far as I know none of them have regretted their decision and have been very happy at Weald and have done very well academically. That doesn't mean that Togs isn't a very good school ( and we know quite a number at Togs who are very happy there) - it just wasn't right for the girls I'm referring to.
