Dear parents over there, I am sure many of you went through the same torture of choosing the school for the kids. My DS got offers for both St.Andrews and Greenfield in Woking. We were planing to go with Greenfield, but having second thoughts. The parents booklet seem to be focused a lot on commercial aspect and also they don't give extra time for Years 4-6 after school to prepare for the exams unlike Hoe Bridge and St.Andrews. Any thought, experiences are really appreciated. Thank you!

If it was a daughter, I'd opt for Greenfield as it goes up to 11. As you've got a son, presumably you're sure you don't want him to go to a school which only starts at 13 as, if you do, you've got two years to fill. I don't have personal knowledge of either but have friends with children at both. I doubt either is a bad option tbh.

Hoe Bridge and St Andrew's both have girls from nursery to 13. I think most girls leave at 11. Greenfield is much smaller and less well-known than the others. Which one does DS like best?
