Language and learning support
Each pupil’s house is central to daily life. Ask how house staff, tutors and specialist-learning staff work together when additional assistance is needed. Discuss the child’s language background and any existing support plan before applying. Ask what help is available in lessons, how progress is reviewed and whether it carries an extra charge.

Confirm the exact teaching location for the chosen year group. Check the daily journey, meals and activity timetable; a whole-school facilities list may not apply equally to every stage.
