DS1 is at a local private school which has been great up until last year. Since then the leadership in the school changed and it may have caused lots of teachers to leave. Fortunately DS1 is doing his GCSE's now, but 7 of his teachers this year are leaving, 6 are brilliant. Last year he lost some good teachers too.
The school seems to be doing nothing to retain their quality staff. I have spoken to other parents, most have similar concerns.
DS1 had intended on staying there for sixth form, it is a lot of money but we were prepared to do this for two more years, due to the friendships he has formed.
My concern is that the school as a whole is losing about 30 teachers this year. DS1 is likely to have new, perhaps less experienced teachers at A Level.
Should he go elsewhere before it becomes worse next year, or should he stay as he may do well being amongst his friends?
