I need some advice on the differences between the two school? The pros and cons of both. We have visited both and liked areas of both. I don’t know which school to go for and want hopefully some parents who have children there’s advise on what they both offer. Both academically but pastorally and caring and nurturing is important too. Sports at both seem great. I have one child due to start next year and another child who is 2 years behind.

We are working parents who would be investing money into their education and were not private school kids ourselves.

DUMPTON. Got to be Dumpton purely for the comedy value. Dumpton.

I don’t know much about Castle Court but I have friends with kids at Dumpton who rate the Head highly and are also delighted with the new connection with Canford.
