fast forward years into the future... you have a child in year 6 picking schools to go to... they got the academic ability to pass the grammar tests, and you have funds to send them to boarding school... would you rather they go to a boarding school, a single sex grammar school, a single sex comprehensice, or mixed comprehensive... and why?
i went to girls grammar myself, and i know a lot of people who went to comprehensive saying i "missed out" on normal schooling... but i think i turned out aite... so if my child passed the test i'd probably pop into grammar school... i wouldnt chose boarding cause i wouldnt be able to keep a proper eye on em..
what do you think?

normal school... i turned out alright, if they want to study, they'll do well wherever they go... i don't like all the tests that little kids have to take these days , too much pressure, let them have a childhood... i don't think i started learning anything until secondary school, i had so much fun at primary

I would never send my child to a boarding school.
