We are relocating to Cambridgeshire in late June from the US. My son will be entering year 7 and while he excels in some academic areas, he struggles in others. At our current state school he receives some extra help in writing and staying focused/organization but generally does well in school. In addition to his learning struggles, he is very sensitive and would not do well in a competitive environment. My biggest fear is that he will slip through the cracks at a larger and less personalised school.
As we are not relocating until the summer, I am very concerned about getting him a place in a school and have started to consider private options.
I would like small classes with good pastoral care, non competitive teaching environment for different kinds of learners and a music program.
So far, I've investigated Cambridge International School, Kimbolton, Sancton Wood School and Landmark Int'l School. Does anyone have any experience with any of these as well as any tips for state schools given our situation? Thanks in advance!
