Hello! Anyone with children at this school? Especially with music scholars ?

Any feedback very appreciated.
Thank you!

I live locally and looked at it for DC. I wasn’t overly impressed - they take in a cohort that have come from great schools but there doesn’t seem to be much added value when it comes to output in terms of exam results and the progress 8 score.

There seem to be some good music trips and other opportunities but the free music lessons for Y7 they promoted are actually also available at least two other local schools we looked at.
We didn’t apply in the end as I felt both DC would cruise their way through.
You might get more responses on a local site eg nappyvalley.net.
