Hey Comet - are you going the quiz night tomorrow night?
Glad to hear you're a fan too. Our DD is in year 8 and we just thank our lucky stars that she's at Wren and so happy and confident and really (gasp!) enjoying her education.
You get a feeling that the staff are truly on a mission to educate the children - not just for exams but for lifelong learning. If that sounds a bit happy clappy, well, perhaps it is. But it's actually very exciting too - even for us parents. The standards some of the children are reaching in subjects like science and maths are quite awe-inspiring. And in general, they're a genuinely well-behaved, happy bunch.
Re religion, Emily - it can tilt a bit heavily to the God-side of things (in my opinion - don't know if Comet would agree?), especially as we are comfortably atheist, but hell, if that's the worst thing you can say about a school, you are in a seriously good place.
I'll say it again - Mr Whitworth is one amazing head teacher, not least because he knows how to hire excellent, inspirational teachers.
