Hello, I’m starting to consider the idea of grammar schools for my daughter and am really interested to know any recent experiences of SH and WH… I know there have been some changes at both schools so would really appreciate any up to date feedback on what people have experienced at both? TIA! X

Are you meaning Wallington High school for girls?

Do you mean Southend High and Westcliff High? Probably best to just say the names, you might get more replies that way!

I assumed Wimbledon and South Hampstead, so please do confirm!

Surbiton and Wimbledon? What's the SG part?

Oh nix that. Just saw you said grammar. Still don't know what SG is

I presume School for Girls @anomaly2 but other than that I am also baffled... I went to SHSG but I doubt it's the same one!

Wimbledon and Sydenham???

I think you need to name the full schools!

You’d be better off asking in the 11+ forum tbh.

DD went to WHSG until y9 and has been home educated since then. She is one of many children with SEN who the school couldn't / wouldn't cater for. She is very bright but also autistic.

I know personally of 5 or so other families who had the same journey with the school.

DD is 15, so this is very recent (and probably very outing).
