Maidstone girls vs Invicta??

[hopefulmumanddad]

Dear all
I am new to forum (and might I say how fab it is to have access to so much information from like-minded parents) with a DD in Y5. We live in Maidstone area and access to two good girls grammar schools. We are now starting to think about which would suit DD best and wondered if anyone has opinion as to pros, cons of each?

Many thanks

They're both good schools. Invicta gets the bettter results and is seen as more academic. MGGS seems to have better pastorel care. People either seem to like one of the other. The best advice is to go and visit and see which suits you best.

nb. I've got boys, so the above is based on playground conversation.

PS Welcome to the site.

agreed - best to have a look, and if you can manage it go on a normal day, open days generally are quite hectic and don't really give a true feel for the school.
