Landmark School, Cambridge, Senior?

I'm thinking of moving my 14yo (Y10) DD here, she's had difficulties with bullying and school really dropping the ball with her (she has ADHD), and a colleague of mine has suggested it might be a good fit.

Does anyone have any experience of this school for older kids? Their website seems very focused on the primary, but not so much the Yr 10/11. I'd probably start her in Y10 again.

Just saw this although probably too late but thought I'd comment anyway in case you were still deliberating. I have experience of this school and in the senior years and after being there for some time we are no longer there due to a very badly handled bullying type situation. I would be very careful with this school in senior school, it's way too small socially to form meaningful friendships and find your tribe. Teaching was good, in my opinion However I'm not convinced about the headteacher's abilities (some of his emails left me in tears!!) and it's very cliquey and to top it all off we had an horrendous time when we wished to move my child and we were significantly out of pocket! Don't be fooled by the faux friendships and at time low boundaries between parents, staff and management... low objectivity and favouritism is rife throughout. Primary is good but again, too small, if kids in class don't share interests then literally no one to play with at times. It's not terrible but my kids are SO much happier now we have moved on.
