Dd in year one at school 1
Plus points- she’s doing ok, she is friendly with lots of people, school has good reputation
Downsides- class sizes are big (32 in dd’s Case) and uneven she is one of 10 girls. Despite ofsted outstanding school is not doing great , results declining. Dd complains that it’s noisy in class and hard to concentrate.
Split to secondarys is over 4 different high schools (all decent schools) so she will go with some friends but not loads.
School 2 -
Plus points- much smaller class size 22 and balanced.
Ofsted is a good but results much higher than current school.
Dd could be introduced to friends beforehand I know someone who dd goes there and has offered to introduce dd to everyone.
Preschool on site for ds.
Feeds into one secondary only so more friends to go with- better results than 3/ 4 of current options.
Downsides- disrupting dd who is settled and doing ok.
Might knock dd’s Confidence.
We only know a few of the parents so might struggle socially possibly
