Hi there, hoping some current mums at these two schools can give me some advice. My DD is looking at year seven entry sept 2025 and we loved both of these schools. She is academic and neurodivergent and on the anxious side. She wears loop earplugs to reduce noise at school and really enjoys primary school. We want to make the best choice to support her needs in secondary. I am interested as to current parents experience generally of both of these schools but also the support for ND girls needing some reasonable adjustments. I have heard a bit about PF being laid back and not on top of behaviour which worries me for a sensitive and shy girl who may not enjoy a rowdy school with bad behaviour around her. Is the atmosphere at PF a bit chaotic and not so good for someone who needs structure/routine/quiet areas? She is very musical and I wondered what the orchestras and music is like in both.
I would really value any thoughts….
