St Edwards School Poole

We are starting to look for Poole secondary schools for our daughter. Our preference between Poole High School and St Edwards is, St Edwards. We have heard that Poole High has come along way but am still of the view that St Edwards will provide an overall better education as the exam Results seem a bit better (although still far short of what secondary schools should be achieving but appreciate this is a national problem as opposed to only Poole). However, does anyone have any advice on St Edwards and whether it offers a genuinely decent state all round education for our daughter who is academically 'in the middle, it's good points and bad points etc. I heard somewhere that they don't stream and the classes are all mixed ability- is that true. Any advice would be most welcome. Thank you

Just wondered if you made a choice?

I likebthe look of st edwards but a bit concerned about fully mixed ability in classes.

As Poole still has grammar schools, the most academic kids will have gone there rather than into the other senior schools, so I don't think you can really get a true picture of the school by it's published exam results?
