Ravenstone v Rutherford House? Help! Post Reply

[zebedee1]

Need to make a decision before primary-school application deadline for reception for our four-year-old son and we cannot make up our minds between Ravenstone and Rutherford House. Both schools seem to have amazing strengths – and not being able to visit either obviously makes the decision that much trickier... Any insights gratefully received! (Ravenstone does appear to have more outdoor space, the obvious disadvantage with Rutherford House seems to be its location on the noisy main road...)

I would say that you need to decide how important outdoor space is to you. If it is important then I would say Ravenstone handsdown. The other thing to consider is that Rutherford House is part of the big education groups and first and foremost are businesses and I think that could influence how the school is run. That said we have neighbours who absolutely love the school. I think either would be a fab choice to be honest.

Thank you for getting back to me, Waltzer. Interesting things to consider...
