[quote=Anonymous]The couple I had dinner with did not talk about a bad teacher or about problems with the adminstration or about being part of a mass exodus. They talked about pedagogy and an emphasis on memorization rather than understanding and critical thinking. Their DC was doing well (by WES's standards) but the parents wanted more/different and the kid ended up delighted with the change and became much more enthusiastic about school generally once at St Andrews's. Curricular examples/contrasts then followed. YMMV -- personally, I had/have no interest in either school (we don't do religion and DC's happy where she is). [/quote]
