Does anyone girls at Stormont Prep school ( potters bar) or st albans high school for girls?

[stressed2007]

If so can you post - I have got some questions. Thanks

My dd is at St Albans High School for Girls. Ask away!

my dd may be starting in reception. Have heard varioius neg comments about the prep (from people I know) as compared to the high school. Did your daughter attend the prep? enjoy it? It did seem a little staid ( sp?) as we went round. Are you local - we are some distance and also concerned about making friends etc. Thanks

My dd started in Reception. I wouldn't say that the WH is staid. It is just a normal academic girl's school to me. My dd loves the school and is doing well. They are pushed a bit in Reception especially with reading but Year 1 is a lot more relaxed.
We do live close to the school. I would say that the majority live either in Harpenden or St Albans with a few in Redbourn and Wheathampstead.
I suppose distance would be a bit of an issue with regards to playdates as these are encouraged in Reception. My dd's friends all live about 15 minutes away. I don't know how far away you live to the school.
What neg comments have you heard about WH? I'm curious really.

Hi - we have chosen st albans - I so hope I have done the right thing! Are you on CAT?

not sure you are - can we chat off line? I can send email address if easier

Sorry not on cat. Send me your email address if you like. I wouldn't worry we are really pleased with SAHS.
