I'm considering moving my twins going into year 9 to kimbolton school but I'm not sure if they are academically strong and whether they foster disciple. The twins need to a school that is solid in academics and a place they can thrive as rounded individuals.

It's a 'B' school, which is solid.

That tool is not useful for GCSEs btw- if I recall correctly it doesn't include iGCSEs, which many independent schools do.

I live in the area, and Kimbolton is not considered to be academically strong, no.

Whereabouts are you? Could you get to The Peterborough School? It's a small but popular and successful school.
