The security of the school has been stepped up the most prominent change being the new gates on the upper play ground between the nursery and reception. A must for all us mothers who worry about kids wandering out the gate, these are kept locked and now it is a secure area for reception and nursery children to play with a new play area built for them and a new sheltered seating area. The kids are all encouraged to do their best at all times and the teachers are friendly but firm with them. The school has time for its pupils and will at times go above and beyond what is expected of them to help with any difficulties that arise in and out of school.

Solihull School is one of the most successful and prodigious educational institutions in the…read moreBirmingham area for children under 18. An independent school with a hefty price tag, it's also got the educational achievement and well-educated teaching staff to make it worthwhile. It's known locally as "the posh school"! Sollihull School is a day school for children aged 7-18. Children may attend for all 10 years of their Junior and Senior school years, or apply for admission at the age of 16, to attend only the Sixth Form school. The school is situated on several acres near Sollihull town centre on a very attractive plot with emerald-green lawns and Georgian red brick buildings. The only building that seems to really need some improvement is the gymnasium, which is being rebuilt in 2010-2011, thankfully. The extensive and demanding curriculum includes the Arts, the Classics, Business Studies, an excellent Music programme, and dedication to the Sciences, just to name a few. The school operates a no-tolerance approach to bullying, and the pupils I know who go there say that teachers and play area assistants are quick to intervene if a child is being isolated or bullied. Though the A Level and GCSE results are excellent, the homework load is not very rigorous, leaving families and children time for extra-curricular activities. The fees are high, at just over £7700 per year for under-11s and just under £9500 for over-11s. A recent Independent Schools Inspectorate Report read: "The Junior School at Solihull is a happy, close-knit community in which pupils thrive through a varied curriculum well-suited to their needs." My son is close friends with several pupils who attend the school, and they always seem pleased with their teachers and fellow pupils. No child really likes school, but picking a good one is one of the best things a parent can do to further their child's success in later life.

This school appalls me. It all started in year 7 when I was new coming to the induction day, I was…read moreeager to go to lunch only to find myself to some disgusting halal curry. On the way out of the doors there was a Banana peel on the floor, and I asked the lunch lady politely if it could picked up as my hands were holding the tray with the abomination of the biggest cause of diarrhoea on my plate. The lunch lady responded with no, and then I heard the word 'paki' under her breath. I carried on walking to find myself tripping up on the banana peel and me an asian almost swimming in curry, I'm surprised I didn't drown. There was an uproar of the sound 'weyyyyy', and I thought to myself this has to be he most supportive school.

I find the…read morequaker faith fascinating and their open, friendly, welcoming invitation into their buildings astounding. It's made perfectly clear in their venues being called a meeting house. I'm not religious in the slightest but I've visited a few Quaker houses now and this one is a really quaint space being utilised by a wide range of the community. When I nipped in it was in the midst of preschool pick up but the staff were friendly and helpful. They have a great space and one that they not only hire out to the community and use for their worship but they also have a creative day just to bring people together to make in a space amongst other creatives and without any disruption from the trappings of daily life. Their building is set just next door to Northfield's main shopping area and right on the doorstep of the park. Perfect location if you need a venue in Northfield.

We have a young son who will be starting school in a year, so we were planning ahead. One of the big factors for picking the house we did was it's proximity to Raddlebarn school. Once we'd removed all the faith schools from equation, Raddlebarn is in the Top 40 schools in the entire city, which was a fairly good recommendation. A better recommendation comes from the parents of the kid who go there (many of whom are either our friends, or else neighbours) and almost all of them have got nothing but good things to say about the place. The school has a lovely feel to it and I feel 100% confident in sending our boy there next year.
