Hi there - I'd appreciate any current views (good or bad!) of these schools - for a very bright girl (not a true genius type, but always been at the top of her a class without effort and should get A*/A/whatever they are now).
GHS obviously highly selective, so should be good for teaching at the right level, but do they get time to just be kids and have fun as well? SWPS and St George's seem more relaxed, but are the brightest kids catered for? St George's also co-ed, which could be better as we're all girls at home.
The other option is to go the local 'good' secondary, but seeing how the bright kids are just left to themselves at our primary (and oldest DD starting to lose some enthusiasm as a result), we're not sure this is the right option anymore, if we can stretch to something that fits better. I know she should get good results wherever she is (so long as she doesn't turn off completely), but its not all about the results, but the journey she has to get there.
Going round in circles here. Any help appreciated!
