What are your thoughts on the London co-ed schools? We are looking at Latymer, Emanuel, Alleyn's and Harrodian. Anyone have dc at one of these schools? Or have opinions on these schools? Would love to hear from you.

@QuiteAJourney yes it's great, just looked it up and it's ranked 36 in the top 400 Uk private schools.

would you mind sharing that link, please? 😊

I think that this may be the ranking that @kittyquiet was referring to.

I am personally a bit sceptical of rankings (for starters, there are many things to consider behind the academic results and even on the academic results it depends on the relative weight given to different exams and results... and I say it as someone with a DD in a school that regularly is in the top 20, but that we chose for many other reasons).

But I cannot agree more that KGS is a great school.

There are definitely science labs and also artwork from the kids all over the school. I suspect sour grapes for some reason.

I actually find this comment offensive and a personal attack, insinuating that my child was rejected by Harrodian. In fact this is not true at all - in fact we turned down their offer for reasons that I outlined in my previous post and are now in a school with a more established academic reputation.
