Benenden

[kj69]

Hi. We are considering Benenden for year 10 in September. Any up to date thoughts please. Bright, sporty girl, currently at Grammar and missing the broader offering of independent school she had in prep. Thank you

I am a huge fan. One of mine almost went there but she wanted coed instead. Funnily enough, we were talking about it the other day and if she'd be a "different" girl if she went there.

I don't agree with their decision to take day girls. I think it's diluted what was their main USP and what marked them out in that way as unique, but maybe it'll just add to it 🤷🏻‍♀️

Do they even have a space for year 10 though? I know odd spaces do come up last minute and it's an unusual time to move, but what have they said and when do you have to decide?
