We have been tonight to view a school for dd, it has a good reputation, the children seemed happy there and results are way above national average.
But both dp and I left very unimpressed, the classrooms were either tired or sterile because they were empty with one or 2 exceptions. The staff seemed tired and in one case overly defensive.
As a teacher mysel I know the spin and effort that goes into an open day so part of me is thinking if this is them doing their best for show what must it be like for the rest of they year.

Shoddy displays, staff seemingly lacking in energy, very little work on display but 86%A-C would this put you off a school.
