I am moving to Winnersh-Wokingham next year, my new home is far away from St Crisipin so there is no luck for my son get into this school.

May I know the Forest school or Emmbrook which one is better? I think I will choose either one for my son.

Could anyone give me comments on how good they are or any bad comment ?

Thanks

My son went to forest and loved it. He’s super sporty so really likes the rugby team and cricket etc.
He’s 19 now so left two years ago. I would pick forest over emmbrook. Emmbrooks reputation isn’t great but I don’t have any personal experience of sending a child there.

I never heard of anything serious. Ds would have fall outs then they would be mates again.

They did seem to take bullying seriously and would deal with it if the few times I did hear about it.

Met quite a few parents over the years and all seemed happy with the school and pastoral care.

They always seemed very supportive to me. Ds year head was definitely firm but fair.
