Hi
I wondered if anyone has had any experience of the new head at Lyceum and how the school is. We are living abroad but looking to send our 2 DS to Lyceum when we return to UK next summer.
They used to go to Charterhouse but we cannot get our places back but I have been offered places at Lyceum and I was wondering how the new head was working out ....
When I met the old head ages and ages ago he seemed really nice and I liked the atmosphere but the lack of natural daylight put me off. I think they are planning on doing some refurbishment - which may be good news?

Anyway would love to get some feedback !

thx!

The new head only lasted a year 2014.
The school was bought by an equity firm. Original heads sold it off.
Expect school expansion, double form entry and sale again.
Fees have increased by 5%. Lots of staff changes. All sad.
I have children at the school and we're upset. I don't know if it
can survive as we knew it. Such a shame.
My child lost count of how many French teachers they've had.
Management is a shambles.

RedFleur - any chance I could possible speak with you in more detail? I've seen a number of your posts and would like to have a more depth understanding of your views. We are looking at sending my son to Lyceum next term... very concerned now.

We are very concerned as well. RedFleur, do you have any idea why the new head left? May I pm you?

Avacat, would you recommend us sending our son to Lyceum given these concerns? May I contact you?

Cookie, I am in the same boat as you I think, though of course you may contact me.
