Dear All
Hoping you can offer me the benefit of your experience in choosing a secondary school. Starting to think about our local options for my dd,
who is academically doing well. Our nearest school is an all girls school, who have good GCSE results 85% at grades A-C and good value added ratings. However dd is not a girly girl and has said that she thinks she would prefer a mixed school, the one school she has mentioned is slightly smaller than the girls schools and further away, but in terms of results considerably lower at 45% and a minus value added score. In terms of how she learns she is very much I am hear to learn, so no messing about and knows what is right and wrong, so on the one hand think the girls school would be the better option academically but I am just not sure if she would struggle with it being an all girls school. What is the best way to approach this...?
