West London Free School or Sacred Heart? Urgent!!

[brokeuse]

Hi!
I need to send the list requirement to Council tonight and am told between WLFS secondary and Sacred Heart in Hammersmith for DD's entry to secondary next year. I read many threads and we also have the catholic paperwork... But WLFS seems to have evolved soooo much since the past, as I was watching GCSE results from 2018 ad 2018 and they are fabbbb.. Also worried that Sacred Heart might be too strict... Any thoughts?? Thanks!!

I can only tell you that three friends of mine with children in Y10 of WLFS are so disappointed in it. They thought of moving the children last year but did all end up opting to stay because their children were not unhappy and they were worried about moving before GCSEs. The parents felt the curriculum was narrow, the school had lost any of its initial "difference" when it was established and they actually found it a very unimpressive comprehensive in their children's first three years. I don't know Sacred Heart at all.

Sacred Heart no doubt. Only hear bad things about WLFS and everyone loves SH.

Thank you both.. I feel puzzled to hear so many negative views on WLFS... It felt really great when I visited it...

What did you go for??
