Hi everyone
Im looking at a number of private schools in the SW for my 8 and 9 year old children who both have SEN. Neither very academic or sporty but sociable and curious. We have visited Blundells, Stover, Mount Kelly and Plymouth College and they all offered something unique. However, we were most impressed with the Head, the children and the facilities at Blundell's. Taster days will be next step but we would like to narrow this down to 2 schools.
One of our main concerns, is the emphasis private schools place on sport. Whilst this is a huge attraction for many kids, my kids, find sport very challenging, due to diagnoses of dyspraxia.
Essentially, we are looking for a school where the children can continue into year 7, with strong ethos around kindness, SEN provision and pastoral support and helping each child achieve their best potential. Not essential, but would be a bonus, if the parents are also welcoming. Looking for advice or recommendations from those with children in a SW private school, especially Blundells.
Thanks for reading
