Hello all
I am new - please be gentle.
We are now narrowing down our choices for senior schools. Trying to keep to a minimum of 2-3 independent.
although we saw Habs, St Albans and North London Collegiate, none of these schools felt right. Probably too academically driven for our DD.
Has anyone narrowed down Northwood College, St Margaret's Bushey and Haileybury - yes a little far from where we live but we loved this school as well.
Would love to be able to share thoughts on these schools with you.
Having just moved into the area a year ago, the whole process has hit us quite hard.
We are just over a mile away from our nearest state school which is ofsted outstanding but it is heavily over subscribed. We loved the school but it is huge - about 300 intake in year 7 alone. We feel a smaller independent would suit our DD who is bright but would benefit from a smaller environment.
I look forward to hearing any comments you may have.
Thanks in advance!
