Confusion : Please help : Newstead Wood or NonSuch School

Post by partha5637 »

Hi there

I have a predicament which I was hoping someone can address please
My DD had put Newstead on her first preference and she has got it.
We stay in a area which is equi-distance from Newstead and NonSuch (she did well in NonSuch too)

My daugher is outgoing ,spontaneous, bubly and sportly (she loves swimming and outdoor sports)
Reading the forum posts - there is little to chose between the grammer schools but someone mentions which one 'fits' your DD is key.

I would request some guidance on what to do next - shall I take Newstead or apply to be waitlisted for nonsuch .

Please can someone who had similiar predicament / views please suggest the pros and cons of both school

Regards
Sujata

Why did your DD put Newstead as her first preference? Assumedly because she preferred it over Nonsuch.....so go with that.

Both are good schools and as both are at same distance, go with what your DD wanted. Why second thoughts?
