SW London Catholic - Ursuline High Wimbledon vs St Phil's Carshalton

Anybody care to shout for/against one or the other?

Also, anyone got any idea how likely to get in from SW17 if baptised within 6 months of birth and weekly Mass attendance? (Ursuline is nearer to us as the crow flies, but travel to St Phil's is slightly quicker.)

St Phil's seems to have pulled away from Ursuline in the GCSE results this year. But then percentage of high attainers at St Phil's is higher than at Ursuline.

Looking at leavers' destinations post A-level, not particularly impressed with either school, but Ursuline seems to have the edge. However, I know that there is quite a bit of movement post-GCSE. Does anyone know whether that has an impact?

Hi Retrobot

Why not duplicate this thread on the Merton local board too? There's a wealth of local knowledge! local.mumsnet.com/merton

Will also flag it up on Mumsnet Merton Facebook page!

Best wishes
