Hi just looking for opinions as to how hard it is to get in half way through the year. How is the teaching staff at this school and the atmosphere? Are children genuinely happy? Thanks

I agree. I am not in the market for a primary school, but if I was, I would be avoiding any that are for profit. I think you're better off in a state school in that situation as the advice you'll get around your childs needs will rarely be about their needs, but the needs to keep a bum on a seat.

i think people can be misled by schools' charitable setups often its a complicated scheme designed to cut taxes (obviously) and all is needed is just a couple of bursaries and scholarships per year to claim the school is there for public benefit. therefore many charitable setups often have larger class sizes (24 and more ) so they can squeeze in more bursary holders. im not here for debate but i wouldn't consider how the school is run when making the choices
