It has a really good reputation. It also has a good pass rate for the grammars if that’s a consideration.

Yes ideally we would love her to get in a grammar school.... We are not naive to the fact they are all highly sort after. Especially AGSG.

If you have the funds I think it's a good choice. We can't afford to send our children there but I know of a fair few neighbours who have been very happy with the school. Lots who also like Hale prep too. On a side note, my children are at a local primary school and lots of their friends who also attended do so with the intention of sending to private if they don't pass the 11+.

Great school. Academic but also great pastorally and for sport and drama. They prep them well for AGGS.
