I'm thinking of taking dd (6) out of her primary school for y3 and sending her to one of the above (if she gets in of course), but I don't want to overburden her with assessments so would try for a maximum of two
She's very able - free reader, very confident with numeracy, articulate, good at sport etc so I think she'd sail through 7+, but of course I don't know what the other kids are like and their parents may well be thinking the same thing
I'm not sure about single sex for primary age, although from this point onwards ime boys and girls don't really mix until they start getting interested in each other again at secondary
I want her to be happy, busy, stretched but not hot-housed - which would best fit the bill do you think?
ps have name changed cos got bored with my old name
