Confused- prep school in Harrow, Orley farm or Quainton hall?

[Scorpio1580]

Hi everyone, first post here but hoping to get some advice that will help us make up our minds.
My DD has just been offered a place in both Quainton hall and Orley Farm for September 2020. We really like both schools and are unable to decide. Does anyone have any recent experience of either of the schools? Any insight or guidance will be much appreciated.

Scorpio, I’ve had two DS at Orley Farm and if you’re looking for your child to have a broad education with excellent facilities, it’s a better choice than Quainton Hall. The children leaving the school are confident and well prepared for their future schools and life in general as Orley focuses not only on the academics but life skills also. The on-site sports facilities enable children to try a variety of sports and play lots of matches once old enough. The staff are great and will go that extra mile. Every school has pros and cons but I’d say that Orley has less of the cons.

A friend of mine has had 2 kids go through Orly Farm recently and was very happy with it.

Thank you Jensboys and fairgroundsnack, appreciate your feedback. We have a week to make up our minds, DD loved Orley farm, so that and your insights definitely help.

Hi read your comments above for Orley farm. Can anyone tell me when the boys are pressuring for 13+ exams in year 7&8 Did you got help from school & also did tutoring or no tutoring and the boys were successful in their 13+ exams. I will appreciate your candid direct answers please. I am thinking about it

I meant when the boys are preparing (not pressuring typo error) for 13+ exam in my message above

@jyotii This is an-old thread. Best to start a new one.
