Hi
Could anyone please advise if you would recommend Haileybury school? Or any high school around the Hertfordshire area?
Thank you

70% of the children on boarding, international and posh facilities, C of E, good pastoral care, delicious food and high attention of the staff.
Price higher than St Edmunds college (Catholic and less academic, not our choice at all).
There is Bishops Stortford College, they have better GCSE and A-Level results, swimming team (Haileybury has not but have climbing) and less religious.
DS liked most of all Haileybury, it was a WOW factor to him because the first school he looked at.
Other option is Bancrofts, St Albans and Haberdashers.
Usually, boarding schools have 6 days of learning, days - only five. The exams' result lower than at the day schools because of they are international.
Most of all I liked: 1st Bancrofts, 2nd St Albans, 3rd Bishop Stortford, 4th Haileybury. I am not sure about Habs yet but this is another thread.
DS has own opinion: 1st Haileybury, 2nd Bishop Stortford and St Albans, 3rd Bancrofts and Haberdashers.

Heard nothing but good things about it.
St Edmunds as an alternative?

I have friends who attended, friends who taught there, and friends currently teaching there! Would highly recommend but obviously depends what you're looking for.
