Royal Grammar School High Wycombe

[winkywinkola]

I've been looking at grammar schools in Bucks.

I didn't know about the Royal Grammar in High Wycombe. The website paints a marvellous picture.

Very nice looking school

Does anyone have a son there? Have a view on the school? I'm visiting it on Thursday am but would be interested to hear some views on the place.

Tia.

And what is difference between a day boarder and a weekly boarder please?

Hi Winky,

I know several families with boys at RGS. All are happy, feeling is that the new head will be very good for it. It is quite traditional in outlook - very academic, sporty and heavily rugby orientated which doesn't suit all.

One family in particular have boarding experience - one of their sons was the first to be classified a day boarder. They chose it because of family logistics, even though live relatively nearby. It's been very positive for them.

The day boarding sprang up out of a need for boys to stay later in the day without sleeping over.

How did your visit go?

Hallo.

Thanks so much for the info.

I am taken aback by ds1 being so keen to be a weekly boarder. He'll only be 11. But he says to me that it'll only be four nights a week and he'll be home for weekends and all the holidays.

I felt very sad. But then it's not about me is it?

We have four more days to decide.

What could be cut off marks in Kendrick this year 2016.. Any idea!
