I have a boy 11 Hes quite bright and has got into KEGS in Essex and Brentwood school with a scholarship
I am unsure who to choose as my other son 14 is in Brentwood but seems to have gotten worse in behaviour?

I'd suggest asking MN to edit your post to put the school names in the title. More chance of someone who knows about them actually spotting it (and means people like me who konw nothing will know not to open the post).

Agree that you should change the title of your post. I am somewhat familiar with the two schools though, and I would say KEGS definitely. Better academics, good pastoral care (I’ve heard at least) and free. Only downside (if you think it’s a downside) is that it’s all-boys and Brentwood is co-ed.

Please tell me that the KEGS place is a late offer from the waiting list, and that you haven't been holding the offer in tandem with your Brentwood place for 4½ months...
