We are relocating back from overseas after 9 years and trying to find a school for my DS having checked out all the good state schools they are full. We have now been looking at private. he sat an entrance test for a very academic school for year 8 they have come back and said he is not up standard for year 8 (possibly from all the school moves he has had) but they will take him for year 7. He is young in the year being an August baby We have also been offered a year 8 place at a very small private school which is not as academic but I worry will lack the extra ciriculum element. and small numbers (2 classes of 13) . Would you consider either of these ? There is not a lot of choice other than whichever under achieving state school we are offered.
