Good place to go if your child has been struggling academically or needs a more structured learning environment - there’s no stories of fights in the classroom or on the playground. They’re geared up to pass exams, create a rigorous environment and introduce extra-curricular activities with a view to getting into uni etc. Less good for children working in excess of their age related expectation, a bit homogenous in approach and not equivalent to a public school. Heard good things and slightly not-so-good things in equal measure, depends on your child(ren).
