Looking at schools for DC; any thoughts on Princethorpe. It seems to have grown rapidly in recent years. DC not sporty but academically high achieving; we are not Catholic but the school seems to welcome all faiths.

My cousins went years ago to princethope . They both did very well .

Thank you; our choice would be between PC and Bablake (amalgamated). I think Princethorpe is easier to get into, and academic results less stellar, but enough academic pupils to provide a good challenge. Does that sound right?

Yes , my dad went to bablake and my DP went to king Henry's . Go with your gut you have two good choices to play with .

Thank you! There is so much stress and angst on this board about (mainly) London schools that it’s easy to forget things are more straightforward outside London. DC will probably get into both so we will do more investigating locally. 🙂
