We're struggling to find back-up schools if DD2 doesn't get in to CoCHS. Years ago, we had a taste of a school that allegedly had a special class solely for academic high-fliers. Within 2 years, 4 pupils left, bullying was rife, teachers left and so did we. We're desperate to know if anyone can recommend somewhere to consider as an alternative. We're well out of catchment for the one we know is brilliant, from DD1's time there. We'd like somewhere that DD2 won't feel like a geeky idiot - she loves to work and had Level 5 at the end of Yr 5.
We'd be so grateful for thoughts
