We are moving back to the Dunblane area in Scotland in the summer from Epsom, Surrey. I have a 16 year old boy ( year 11 currently & sitting GCSE's) and an 11 year old boy( year 6 currently). We are thinking about either Dunblane High School or Beaconhurst School. The boys were in Beaconhurst for a few years prior to us moving to England 4 years ago. I wondered if anyone had experience of these 2 schools now ( good or bad) and could give any advice about how to help my 16 year old in particular settle down at school. I am a bit worried about the differences between GCSE and National 5's and whether this may make the move to Higher difficult. any advice / experience of this would be great to hear.
