[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The figures cited about kids leaving the Close is inaccurate. Around 60% of boys were admitted to STA this year. I’ve had two kids go through Beauvoir and can honestly say that they both learned more from learning at home than the school. [b]Academics is a joke. If you say at the school, be prepared to supplement at home.[/b][/quote]

I’ll bite. Didn’t you sign up for play based learning and early childhood focus aka not acceleration?[/quote]

Yes, that’s exactly what we signed up for. That’s literally what they advertise. I don’t know why there is someone on here complaining about the academics. If I wanted my kid doing worksheets all day I’d have them in public school for free. We wanted them to love learning. They’ll have plenty of years ahead in their future at St Albans/NCS/wherever to grind. [/quote]

We also signed up for that- except there’s got to be some learning. Many parents aren’t supplementing to “get ahead” they are supplementing because the education is so poor their children aren’t at grade level. [/quote]
