Wondering if anyone has kids at either school or kids who have left prep/secondary/sixth form?
We have 2 girls in a state primary, going into Reception & Yr 2 in Sept. For various reasons we are looking for a nurturing through school and both RMS and St Margaret's are about equal distance to us and have places.
We want a rounded school environment where there is academic achievement but other skills and interests are equally valued if our children are not highly academic - though both seem bright enough for their age. St Helen's is not really for us due to the academic expectations and pressure, it just would not suit us or our kids.
RMS is all girls, St Margaret's is now co-ed - this is another factor we are not sure about either way. Have heard girls are more confident in all girls, though as DH and I went to co-ed state school's so we don't know what single sex environments are like for girls?
We have formed our own pro's and con's list but having just a small glimpse it is based on an hours experience at each school, we really wanted kids and parents first hand experiences.
Would really appreciate any advice and experience on both RMS and St Margaret's and also experiences of all girls/co-ed.
