Borlase vs John Hampden

Hi would deeply appreciate any advice on the above 2 schools.

We liked them both so it's a question of which down we put down first on our preferences

At the moment we are leaning towards Borlase as it's easier to get to and, as he gets older, he will be able to get to Marlow independently without relying on lifts from us.

You don't say where you are, but if he is having to travel to Marlow, is SWBGS actually an option based on distance? Recent years' stats show places allocated to a distance of usually between 2.8 and 3.3 miles, except 3029 when it was only 1.7!
