One of the better in the area but not as easy to get into as it once was (preference to those attending specific primary shcools for example)

ooooh! Which department? IME the staff go the extra mile, it's very much a "putting lots in" school. I have some friends on the staff (as well as two DC there) so PM me if you like.

My son left last summer. He went to a private school until the age of 11 but was suffering under the pressure. He was a changed boy within weeks of attending Oxted. I'm very happy to say that he achieved fantastic exam results, and has a sound set of values. He made some great friends too. All in all, Oxted is a great school. V pleased with it.

We have friends with children there whom are very happy with it. I was impressed when we looked around it 3 years ago for dd1 but she preferred Sackville in East Grinstead
