Anyone have a view on this school? Moving back to the UK in the Farnham area summer term next year and would appreciate any opinions and views.

Watching with interest. What age group are you thinking of?

Have you ever been to one of there open days?

I loved it, DS didn't so didn't go. It is very different so depends on you and your children. You definitely need to visit.

Following with interest too. FWIW we like this type of school, and liked Leighton Park in Reading.

I would say Leighton Park and Frensham Heights are different. I'd put all the Quaker ones in one group, and then ones like Frensham, Bedales, St Christopher's in another (and Summerhill etc. in yet another).

Its considered to be 'alternative' (no uniform, call teachers by first name, no reward certificates or sanction systems that you find in other schools) children tend to have to be self motivated. Friends dd went there and left after 2 weeks, didn't like the lack of structure. Normal entry is a test in the January before starting. Definitely need to visit aa its not for everyone
