Any information at all will be greatly appreciated, I am not happy with my DD school allocation and this is one of the schools we are looking at.

Lots of DS's friend's siblings go there, so all I know is playground chat, but its better than nothing. Parents are very happy with it, teachers and even headteachers of local indys are happy to send their girls there. It has a very cosy atmosphere and is supposed to be a very happy school. Seems to appeal to parents even of very bright girls who think LEH is a too competitive environment for their child. I have never actually heard anyone say anything against it, which is very unusual.

Thank you so much for your comment, want to make sure that it is going to be money well spent going the private route. I feel so much better now having accepted the offer of a place there , and feel that it is the right environment for my DD who is bright, likes a challenge but doesn't thrive in a overly pressurised environment.
