Queen's Gate or St James school ?

DD has offers at both Queens Gate and St James Senior Girls. It's difficult to make a choice because both are amazing schools. I would appreciate some advice.
Thank you.

Which one do you live closer to?
QG tends to be more of a Knightsbridge/Chelsea sort of demographic.
SJ is further west.
I’d start from there, as the social fit, while less important in early years - does become more important as they grow up.

@MMmomDD
Thank you very much for your reply. We are in RBKC so traveling will not be an issue. I would appreciate any information on the strengths and weaknesses of both schools. Thank you 😊

I heard more good things about QG than St James. Also there seems to be quite a different subject choice in GCSE and Alevel in two schools so have a look at their syllabus. I prefer the Queensgate subject choice
