Good Schools Guide

Is this worth buying? It's almost £40! Is it better to subscribe online - you get 1 month online for £10. Does that give you access to all of it? I was really hoping to get from library but they don't have one in the whole of Herefordshire or Worcestershire!

I want to read whatever general advice they give as well as the reports & stats on a few specific secondary schools in our area - mainly independent schools really.

Are there other good sources of info anywhere? I don't know anyone who has a child in these schools.

The web is good, you also get stats about schools they have not reviewed in the book. If it's a quick consultation, they have it in Waterstones. Take a seat and read. [hwink]

I read all the bits I needed in Waterstones too!

I have been known to read it in Waterstones too. It's huge and you don't need most of it.

I bought mine for £8, but it was last years edition.
