Bexley Grammar or Beths for Twins
Posted: Sat Oct 13, 2018 1:12 am
Perennial Question... Beths or BGS?
- Twin boys like both schools, both scored highly in Kent and Bexley 11+ (not top 180).
- Latest Gov / Telegraph league seems to show that Beths is slightly better with the numbers ie. progress 8.
- Still undecided on the co-ed v single sex conundrum.
- I thought Beths seemed a bit rowdier and more boisterous than BGS, but that could be down to the boys only factor.
- Closest to us are Beths (IC), BGS (IC), DGS, CSG (IC), WGSB in that order.
We haven't even thought about how to put Dartford Grammar into the ordering mix until we revisit again.
Also what would be the next closest good Kent grammar from Bexleyheath after Wilmington to put as option 6 on the CAF?
I know that's a lot of questions but any help from current Y7/8 parents in either school with thoughts if they made the right/wrong choice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
