I am considering Wellington College, Christ's Hospital and Epsom College for my son for 2015 Y9 entry. I have read reviews on all 3 schools but note that Wellington College has amassed a considerable number of bad reviews on mumsnet forum with most based solely on individuals dislike of the current headmaster, Dr. Anthony Seldon. I personally find it difficult to form an negative opinion of someone who has clearly achieved a great deal for WC. I have not yet read any offensive quotes from him in the media and, considering his C.V., see no reason why he should not be proud of his achievements and outspoken about subject on which he has so much experience.
I am just wondering if the opinions of those who reject Wellington College because of their dislike of Dr. Seldon have changed since he announced that he will be retiring in Summer 2015 to care for his terminally ill wife, Joanna?
I look forward to hearing your opinions.
