I was also impressed and thought the new head was great, very 'real', the girls showing us round were polite and engaging and the teachers (particularly English and art) were really useful to talk to.

I'd also like some first hand experience info please, again PM is fine

No PMs at all (apart from those shared between me and Monkey).

We've submitted our application and Harris Girls is on the list, it's not first choice but that's mainly because my daughter has no reference point there where-as she knows lots of kids at other schools.

Harris Girls results (actual and pupil progress) are some of the best around - if she gets a place there I'm confident she will do well there....

Thank you for your response, Kristymac1. I've had mixed opinions about Harris ED and Kingsdale, whereas views on Sydenham Girls have been consistently positive. Harris will still make it to my list as I really liked it, but it won't be my first either. Now all we have to do is sit back and wait. Good luck to us!
One of the things I'm not clear on with Harris (not yet at the open day stage) is of the results how many do A levels and how many do A level equivalent - think I'd heard secondhand that the majority of their results are HND social care type courses which have A level equivalence. Was this covered in their open day material?

    • The problem is Starmer can't shut up about his dad being a tool maker, they made Keir,  a right prize tool. Reeves continually blames the previous Govt, but correct me if I'm wrong but inflation was decreasing, unemployment was stagnant, with decreases and the occasional increase, things were beginning to stabalise overall.    Then we had the election 4 July when Starmer and co swept to power, three months on things are worse than they were before, yet Reeves continues to blame the former Govt. The national debt doubled overnight with public sectors all getting a wage increase and now the budget that penalises business with the increase in Employers national insurance. The result of which will be increased prices in the shops, increased inflation, increased numbers of redundancies, increased unemployment and increased pressures on the DWP to fund this    Future growth will go backwards and become negative, farmers will no longer farm in protest against the Govt, more people will become poorer and unable to pay their bills, things will spiral out of control and we'll have a repeat of the General Strike until this bunch of inept politicians resign and Kemi and co prevent the ship from hitting the iceberg and sinking.  
    • Indeed so.  Just noting there are other options and many children and indeed young adults may well be perplexed and/or irritated by a cheque. 
    • My experience of the CT is that when they screw up, their first instinct is to cover up. They are also shameless liars.
    • And that's your choice, but it's not everyone's choice.  Some people don't like or can't do what you do.
