Habs Boys or Merchant Taylor

Post by ranmis »

My boy has got offers from both Merchant Taylors (with Scholarship and 30% bursary) and Haberdashers Boys (no scholarship or bursary). He has also got his 1st choice for state schools - Queen Elizabeth Boys Grammar School, Barnet.

We are in a dilema as to which one to accept. Last day for accepting offer for MT is tomorrow. Can someone please advise based on their own personal experiences with older childern in these schools?

Hello ranmis,

Congratulations to your DS in getting to these schools.
My DS got into these as well and we have chosen QE as this was our first choice.
I have an older DS at QE and I am very happy with this school.

I thought that you had to accept offers from MT by next Monday, 7th of March so you may have more time.
