Hi, DS got Y7 offers from both schools. He is a keen football player with outgoing personality. We have studied both schools' curriculum (and love them both), went to open and taster days. DS likes both schools and cannot decide. Any parents who can kindly share your advice and experience? Many thanks.

We’re in the same boat, have you made a decision?

BeNiceBePolite · 05/03/2025 00:26

Yes, we did - QEH.

we have a child at BGS which he chose over QEH. Very happy with BGS I think it was the right choice

Yes my son is very excited to join the school. I don't know other Year 7 parents yet. Looking forward to meeting new parents too.
