My DD is at Grey Coat Hospital in Westminster in year 11, and has been doing extremely well, and always planned to stay for sixth form. A friend persuaded her to try out for St Olave's in Orpington, she got in, the friend didn't.
I know nothing about the school ( I haven't even been round) other than its academic reputation and that it will take her an hour minimum to get there. I know of only one other person who has ever been.
We've told her we are happy to let her choose and tbh I'm more than a little impressed by her initiative, but I really want to find out a little bit more about the school, and the long journey scares me, though I know lots of other kids do it. Currently her school journey is a quick hop up the Victoria line..
Anyone with experience of St Olave's or long school journeys??
