Hi, we have an offer from Godolphin too.
The school seems to have a fantastic reputation for pastoral care and also great results. Do you have insight on the type of girl who would fit in or is the cohort diverse? We do have 2 other offers from Habs and SHHS. Trying to decide based on fit. Commute can be managed as we are planning to move closer to the right tube line. Thank you.

I also would like some insights if possible about the school. We are hesitating between GL and City.
We are muslims so would like some diversity in the girls and for her to find some muslim friends too if possible.
My daughter pray and fast, it will be easier for her if there are other girls like her too.
I'm not looking for a muslim school (if it was the case I wouldn't have apply to theses schools) but just some diversity.

Hi Pkompel, we are in the same case, if we choose GL we might move nearer. Do you already know around where you might move in case you choose GL?

Thank you @johnwang. I have seen most publicly available reviews/reports. Any other points from current/past parents would be helpful.

@na100681, we will consider moving to Harrow/Sudbury closer to Piccadilly line. Can't move any closer as it needs to work for everyone in the family. I think 40min door to door is doable.

@pkompel I live in Harrow too. But not close to Piccadilly Line, our house is just over 10 mins talk to Met Line which is a big reason for choosing SHHS as it is just outside Finchley Road tube station.

What a coincidence we were thinking of Rayner's Lane (south Harrow) for the same reason!!!
