Sutton High vs Croydon High School

[saurabh1649]

My DD will start Year 7 in Sep 2019. I am trying to compare Sutton High vs Croydon High School. Anyone who has more details for these school and can help with their thoughts.

Hi saurabh1649

so which school did your daughter go in the end? I'm in the same boat now and my daughter is in year 5 at the moment. Any thought regarding these 2 school?

thanks from a worrying mum

I believe the Croydon High head is leaving to Epsom College in September, so worth checking who will take over as new Croydon High head - you may have more certainty with Sutton High.

Thank you so much swgeek, i read that from Epsom college website as well. My only concern is Sutton High is very nurture school and pastoral care is brilliant but my daughter needs that extra push, she's capable of doing more but rather not. I dont know much about Croydon high as I live closer to Croydon than Sutton so just want to understand abit better about these 2 school before I apply.

@mumwithworry we looked at both schools and their academic results are similar if not identical do I think both would offer push to be honest, so it will just be down to visiting them and seeing which feels right
