What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?

Do not go there-- it is a very old fashioned school, and A level results are not very good. They advertise with small classes, but in reality the teachers do not know how to teach small classes. Lots of negative communications. Communications at the school are a huge problem anyway. It's been awful.
