Burnham Grammar VS John Hampden Grammar

[Hermesmum]

Hello Everyone,

My DS is offered a place in JHGS, our 1st priority school is BGS but we are still on waiting list. Looking for expert comments incase we get our first choice which school will be best for DS. Looking for advice. Thanks in advance everyone.

The biggest difference is the fact that one is single sex & one is mixed. Is that important to you?
Both are good schools, no-one can know what is best for your DS as they don't know him. Is one easier to get to?

No one can tell you which would be better for your son because we don't know him. Does he prefer the idea of mixed or all boys? It might be better to settle for the offer you have. Popular schools tend to have much slower moving waiting lists anyway.

Thank you everyone for honest opinion. I always wanted to send DS in Mixed school but it's not a priority for me. Moreover, DS enjoyed the transition so we will stick to JH. Many Thanks again :)
