What to compare before you choose
Compare the correct campus and year group
A school group can have several campuses serving different ages. Check the campus address, year group and curriculum before arranging a tour. Primary, secondary and sixth-form offerings are not interchangeable.
Curriculum, admissions and learning support
Ask admissions about entry assessment, subject choices, school calendar and available learning support. Verify the current programme and examination route with the school rather than assuming every campus offers the same qualifications.
Fees, boarding and the daily journey
Request a written fee schedule including transport, meals, uniforms, activities and boarding where applicable. Visit the campus and discuss pastoral care, communication and pickup arrangements. Compare travel time at the actual school-run hour.
Use votes as a starting point for your shortlist
The poll identifies reader favourites. A school tour and direct admissions conversation help you decide which campus and learning environment suit your child.
