Senior Private school needed or agency help

I am desperately in need of a pastorally good senior school (year 9). We were at an amazing prep school and currently at a private school which has no sense of community, no sense of pride and my child is so lonely as they all knew each other from the junior school. The school have been told and don't care. Is it possible to find a private senior school which is pastorally amazing and where there is that family feeling or am I looking for something that doesn't exist. Definitely not Uppingham, Oakham, Stamford or Oundle. 2 hours from those schools would be amazing but for the perfect and right school maybe further. Shiplake don't do Latin so is a no ! Happy to consider an agency but not Gabbitas as they were so condescending !! Thank you !!**

@Strawberrycocktail we have an EP yes and get extra time in exams. Aside from the Maths CE results were strong, getting a 76 average by Rugby's marking standard. I am shocked at how many knock backs we have got just because of the Maths issue. I don't even do anything other than ask for a space and send the EP Report. It is incredibly heartbreaking 😬

Wychwood in Oxford?

WW -is small, and very "family" spirited. Pastoral care is amazing. Brilliant at turning pupils around and getting the best out of them. Quite a few mild SEN issues, which they are very good at tailoring individual pupil's educational needs. Lots of 1-2-1 help if required. Teachers are all there to get the best out of each child. Go and visit!

Bournemouth Collegiate or Canford?

Not sure if you are still looking, but Mount St Mary's College would be perfect for him,.
