Our local secondary schools are two of the grammars, both under 10 minutes walk. We chose Crypt for various reasons: the sports, the fabulous music department and the distance. Dd is able to continue with her after school activities as normal, she is home before 3:30 each day which leaves plenty of time for homework, music and sports. She isn’t exhausted and her life isn’t spent sitting on coaches or catching trains and buses. Crypt also continues with their after school sports, this means she can play team sports and matches for the school whereas the children who travel from far can’t take part. These things are vital to me, it makes for a happy and holistic child.
Dd has friends at the various grammars. Her closest friend lives 12 miles from Pates and it takes 45 minutes each way to travel this short distance because of traffic.
We liked DRHS but felt Crypt was a better fit for our daughter. You’ll get this feeling to which will make your decision easier.
