If Nottinghill and Ealing girls full bursary vs Tiffin girls, which school would be better for a girl is ok or good with netball or grade5 violin for orchestra at school. Your opinion would be very helpful. I have a city of London girls wait list with full bursary but not sure it will come to us when WL moves.

Those two schools are miles apart!! As others have said, the commute time is way more important than you think, it impacts every area of your daughter’s life and eduction, friendships, clubs, interests… so what’s the travel time for your daughter?

We live w3 so Nottinghill and Ealing 30mins by bus or Elizabeth line, Tiffin girls around 45mins by overground then 65bus from Richmond station.

if we get city of girls waiting list in March, it takes 45mins from Acton Main line station to Liverpool station by Elizabeth line.

my child does netball and orchestra at school but wants to be an engineer and stay at uni some engineering course so sports and orchestra is hobbies.

wondering if Ealing and Nottinghill is good enough to give up Tiffin’s offer as her teacher believes and recommended Tiffin and city with her academic level and attitude at class.

really appreciate your opinion. Thanks.

Tiffin hasn't offered any places yet.
Apart from that, no-one can really tell you what is best for your child/family.
