Before you visit think about what is important to you and your child/children. Do you want it to be within easy walking distance?
Make a note of what’s important to you and your family so you can refer back to it after you visit.
Here is a list of questions you could ask or things to consider when looking round to get you thinking:
How big is the school and how many students are there?
What is the intake for the year your child is going into?
Is the school part of an academy and if so what does that mean?
What is the range and depth of extra-curricular activities?
Do they have relationships with other schools?
What areas, departments & facilities really impress you?
What do the students that go there think?
What was the head teacher’s speech like?
Of course, don’t forget to ask your child what they thought about each school and what they liked and disliked too.
