Hello
Are there any parents here with children at this school who could give a bit of feedback? We've been to the open day and I had mixed thoughts (I am not a fan of Harris generally but that's a bit tough luck in Bromley). In reality though, it's the only school we're guaranteed to get into on distance criteria- Harris Kent House and Dulwich Wood are the other two possibles (plus Adamsrill and maybe Paxton depending on siblings, but those two give a logistical headache).
The early years looked good, and I liked the free flow, but was wondering if it was actually like that all day in practice? I was a bit surprised that there was so little mention of the visual arts, too- and thought this was reflected by the wall dispays which were only literacy-focused.
I also thought the older years seemed a bit staid- desks in rows, no class discussion happening, although of course it's only a snapshot.
We don't actually know anyone with kids there- the other children on our street seem to be at HKH (although the 'catchment' is contracting) and St John's (not keen on a church school). So really keen to hear any personal experiences!
Thanks so much.
