Reading School

[BlueElephant90]

My ds took a test at RS however he didn't have a good feeling about the school. We haven't got the results back yet so he might not even make it

How is it really? is it a hot house? Do they care about the students? .....

not a hot house really care brilliant education and building a canteen my son spent 7 happy years here now at first year at uni.
best person to ask is your son it suits the bright musical and sport but about 6 applicants per place may he be happy wherever he goes

Does anyone know what extra curricular activities are available at Reading School. Also, if there are after school clubs my DS can join and participate.

So sorry galaxy, as there was no response for a while I stopped checking.
Thank you for the feed back, very helpful.

Hi Blueelephant - I know this thread is v old, but this section is so quiet, thought I'd say hello.

My son is going to Reading in September too :) We did the open evening in y5, just the tour, and really liked it, then went back for the headmaster's talk in y6, and both came away with not such a great feeling about the place. Anyway, he still did the test and got in, and since going to the welcome evening and one session of the Literacy/PE double club they are running (is your son going to that?), he's really looking forward to it :)

Hi aliportico. Sorry I haven't logged in for a long time. No my son is not going to RS at the moment. I have asked around and heard some horried things so I changed my mine. I hope your son is happy there...

sorry I've changed my mind not mine
