My DD currently in year 2 goes to a state school in Cheadle. We always felt that we would send our DD to an independent/ SG in secondary but we are having to rethink this plan as we fear that our DD may not be upto the required standard for these schools if we don't send her to an independent at primary.The other option is to get extensive tutoring to get her to that level but that eats into her spare time and we don't want that pressure on her at such a young age.
We are considering the preps in south Manchester including, Moor Allerton, Ladybarn house, CHS,AESG, Greenbank and Wilmslow Prep with a view for her to go to Altrincham for girls or MSHG.
So far we have visited AESG which was lovely but I get the impression it is not very academic. I wasn't too keen on MA.
I would really appreciate first hand advice on these schools including any experience on the secondaries in South Manchester.
