I am looking for current info on this school. We are moving to the area and looking at schools for my three children aged 9, 12 and 15. My 12 year old is sporty and a good swimmer , the other two are more academic and musical. Thank you.

We have just moved our dc from mk(as did several others after GCSE),if you have an academic child it really isn't a top choice,a small range of A levels and often less than 5 or so children sitting each academic A level,lots of BTEC
Music is slightly better than it was,sport apart from the obvious one is poor,the school can only raise a couple of teams at the senior level,fixtures tend to be against other small schools and you often play them two or three times a term,our child had hardly any fixtures all year.
Large swimming programme,certainly from our understanding- quantity over quality.
The school has really pushed itself on the foreign boarding market ,so large percentage of foreign boarders ,add that to the large number of swimmers-mainly boarders-and it might not be the best choice for an academic/musical day pupil
Go and see,the Head is good ,but we decided that sadly the school was no longer the school we joined,its going in a different direction.
