Tiffin or Whitgift

Please help! Anyone have any advice on these schools? Have been v lucky and offered both Tiffin and Whitgift with big scholarship. Instinctively feel DS would be happier at W and he’s v musical so would benefit from tailored approach - but - feel like it would be foolish to turn down a free grammar super competitive school place. Very confused!

Another for Tiffin but only if you live close enough for a reasonable commute.
You can buy a lot of music and sports for £20K/year and Tiffin will for sure give him a great education.

I've heard that music is very good at Tiffin.

In my own opinion, Tiffin's academy performance is better than Whitgift.
Of course, if you are not stretch in financial for paying the tuition fee, go for W.

Put Whitgift into your Advances Search and see what Mumsnet comes up with.
