I was also impressed and thought the new head was great, very 'real', the girls showing us round were polite and engaging and the teachers (particularly English and art) were really useful to talk to.

I'd also like some first hand experience info please, again PM is fine

No PMs at all (apart from those shared between me and Monkey).

We've submitted our application and Harris Girls is on the list, it's not first choice but that's mainly because my daughter has no reference point there where-as she knows lots of kids at other schools.

Harris Girls results (actual and pupil progress) are some of the best around - if she gets a place there I'm confident she will do well there....

Thank you for your response, Kristymac1. I've had mixed opinions about Harris ED and Kingsdale, whereas views on Sydenham Girls have been consistently positive. Harris will still make it to my list as I really liked it, but it won't be my first either. Now all we have to do is sit back and wait. Good luck to us!
One of the things I'm not clear on with Harris (not yet at the open day stage) is of the results how many do A levels and how many do A level equivalent - think I'd heard secondhand that the majority of their results are HND social care type courses which have A level equivalence. Was this covered in their open day material?

    • The current crimes from what I hear are phone theft from the person, car theft and tradesman vehicle/tools theft. Plus of course the overall increase in stabbings and shootings across London which are becoming normalised.  
    • Whilst clearly 'a crime', I don't think this necessarily sits with the other things you have described. A tragic and awful incident certainly, and dreadfully traumatic to the victim, but not part of any 'crime wave' as such, I suspect. It's the sort of thing which, sadly, can happen anywhere (I, again, suspect). 
    • Does anybody have a folding pasting table they no longer need? All the ones I've found online seem to have terrible reviews, mainly due to being unstable,  or else coming apart! I don't mind if it's grubby, I just want it to gesso wallpaper lining paper, for art not walls!
    • Massive thank you to Stephen. Painted our whole house - and got lots of other bits sorted, too. Nothing was too much trouble, everything looks great and all came in on quote. Fantastic. Liverpool fan, but don’t hold that against him. Will 100% use again.
