Difficult decision to make for daughter’s 11+.

She is currently attending a coed state school. a balanced girl but not competitive. Tends to get worried about minor things…

Hard to resist scholarships from Colfe’s and Blackheath but ranking wise the other two win. I really liked Highgate but commute is about an hour and it’s very expensive. Heard Colfe’s may put kids into different classes depending on their academic performance. Anyone knows? Thanks!

What’s the journey like to each of these schools? If your daughter gets worried about minor things, an awkward journey will be awful.

Scroll down to Overview of provision: Senior School

Also, within the subject area sections, it says that pupils are set for Maths.
