Hi, we are looking at both Beth's and C&S, we are out of catchment so would be moving for the schools.
How would you characterise the difference between the schools.
My boy is not very fond of languages and likes his maths, sciences & sports is something he looks forward to...
Beths - I was reading focuses on Math's and Sciences, C&S anybody knows what they are known for and focus on.
Bexley - seems to have a particular liking for languages and has a very small catchment , hence we are thinking of maybe not focusing on.
Any advise will help?
Not in your area, but although the final decision for all three of our DC with regard to secondary school was made by DH and myself as their parents, we listened carefully to their feelings about each of the schools we looked at together.
What were your DS's feelings about the 'vibe' of each of the schools when you came away from the open evenings? What did the teachers and current pupils say with regard to what you had heard on the grapevine about the emphasis at each school on a particular subject area?
