My gosh girl... they ALL good... better that good... lol... you could go to any one and you would be a a top school... BUT what do you want to get out of going to boarding school? You 100% on the right track - but you need to try THINK about what you want to achieve. It very much depends on what YOU want from the school and what YOU like as a person... for example if the you want if it's very academic and you enjoy study... then it will could be fun and you will go for that type of school... if it's very sports orientated, and you love sports... then it should be for you... or if it's all rounder type school ... you may like to select a school that provides a balance? So it very much depend on the school ETHOS *(the schools culture and philosophy etc) and this ethos will determine the TYPE of people that go there, and what they focus on and you need to see how this fits in with you... you will never get a 100% fit but you will get a FEEL for a school from the web site... then discuss what you think with your parents... On the practical side, it will be best to phone if they dont reply to mails... good work there and all i can say is good luck and go for it. Contact me on if you want on chantal2009@gmail.com!!! Bye for now, let us know how it goes... Chantal
