I’m sure this has been asked before. I was wondering for recent pros and cons for the above schools. I’ve spoken to a few local people but would like to know some deeper pros and cons that might not be obvious for most. Ie: the know GC stream for more subjects and have smaller class sizes for gcse core subjects. We are in catchment for all three so need to make a decision.

TIA

Yes we have our number but dealing with the council is like pulling teeth. Last year apparently they made 75 further offers but not sure if that’s correct. And each year is different

Anyone else still on the waiting list for GC?

Hi, I was intrigued by your response. In that you were still able to secure a place at GC despite having an offer from Tiffin. Were you on the wait list then offered. I am in a similar situation you see. Prefer GC a lot over Tiff simply for the pastoral / community feel. Hope you don’t mind the question?

@MissH1234 sorry, only just seen this. Yes, we got Tiffin offer on offer day and asked to go on GC waitlist and got an offer soon after so gave up the Tiffin place. My DD’s preference for GC had strengthened during the time following the 31 Oct deadline for applications.

I wonder which school you choose and if you are happy with it at the end.
