Hello,
This school was not on my preferred list (am on waiting list for Benthal (1), Shacklewell (6) and William Patton (7)) but I've been offered a place there. Anyone have kids there - any info on what it's like? Should I take it and stay on waiting lists - accepting won't jeopardise getting in elsewhere?

It's my understanding that not accepting a place won't get you any further on the waiting lists, so to be safe you should.

Thanks cockles. I've accepted it. Still wondering if it's an OK school tho, if anyone has experience? And teachers out there know the inside story? I understand there's been some issues with heads moving in and out, but might be settled now?
