Sevenoaks, Wellington or UWC?

Hello everyone,
My daughter is going to a boarding school in UK for Ib for six form. Right now, our choices are, Wellington, Sevenoaks and UWC. We have all heard great things about the experience there. Would it be possible to give me any other schools you might know which are academically excellent but also offer a great experience? Thank you.

Are you looking for IB only?0 In that case you’ve pretty much nailed it. Sevenoaks is the most academic, Wellington is for team sports and for a taste of a classic British boarding experience, and UWC is the most international and the other two are also mostly weekly boarding.

We are looking for an experience that will make her grow and mature a lot at the end of the 2 year process. Of course the academics is a big factor, but the community help, extra curriculars and social experience are still very important. She hasn't been accepted to Wellington, and we are still waiting for Sevenoaks and UWC's response.

What are your thoughts on the comparison of academic standards between
Wellington College and Sevenoaks School?

We are debating on the choice bet the 2 for y9 entry for my daughter.

Both are very good, but I think Sevenoaks is a little better academic wise, and in general is more considered as elite. However, both are great and your child can evolve very well in the two.
