Hi everyone
Does anyone have a son attending these schools?

I am seriously considering these two schools as all the schools I applied for Charter, Kingsdale,Haberdashers and Harris Boys East Dulwich he did not get a place and yes I did appeal and failed miserably even though I convinced myself I stood a chance.

Any quick feedback would be very appreciated as next week everywhere shuts down, thanks to all in advance.

No-brainer means obvious choice - it doesn't even require thinking about. Just go for FH Boys.

Have a look at their Ofsted report, and data dashboard - Ofsted. I always recommend www.how-to-choose-a-school.org/ to support in choosing a secondary school - not for profit, and tries to be impartial. Have a good weekend
