We're relocating to Reading and would love current views on the schools above. DS is very academic and currently at selective school so used to fast pace and high expectations. He loves Science, Maths, DT, Art as well as core subjects and hates sports so would rather a school which doesn't force fixtures though know that is rare with independents. Bonus points for schools with lunchtime clubs and genuinely friendly culture where kids feel free to be themselves. Happy to also hear state recommendations though I'm aware many are unlikely to have spaces. Thanks!
