Hi all - I know lots of topics on this school but we are just really confused and looking for some opinions especially since reading the Radnor house thread in March. So our DS (9) has a 9+ offer at Radnor for sep, he was on waiting list but moved up (they claim it was super competitive this year and 9+ only has 20 places and is in way a unique entry point. Regarding our DS hes a smart boy but a boy i.e. concentration can drift easily, however has strong Maths and Science, lacks patience for English. To add we are moving back from abroad this year, so alternatively he can go to a 11+ prep (SPS or Mall, he has Staines, but Mall is going to assess in June). Younger DS is naturally more academic and going to Mall in September Yr2.
We are confused about accepting Radnor and then allowing him stability to go through all the way and avoid the 11+ but wondering if 11+ might be better to allow him more options and potentially maybe a more academic secondary private or Tiffins.
Not sure if others have had any similar experience or choices to make?
