Experiences of starting at independent or GDST primary from age four

[CuriouserAndCuriouser42]

Deciding between state primary and independent school.
Looking at Sutton High girls school. Would love if someone had experience of sending their child to private school from age 4 or to a GDST school. Did going through a single sex school system affect things socially? I know where she goes now doesn't necessarily dictate her whole school trajectory but curious 🙂

I personally found the prep school at Sutton high to have been very good when my daughter went there (though with the recent change of head I don’t know whether things have changed). I personally would only go to the prep and move your child to a different school for secondary school as we found the secondary school part very different and completely inadequate which has lead to a lot of mental issues and difficulties socially.
