The Equitable Schools Book 1994

Now in its 6th edition, this guide covers more than 550 independent secondary schools, including UK tutorial colleges and 25 British schools overseas, that teach to A-Level or provide specialist teaching. Headteachers have been asked the key qustions that will help parents to decide on a shortlist of schools which will be right for their child. In addition to information on fees, the mixture of girls and boys, and the number of pupils, it describes the activities that thrive in the school, courses and careers to which pupils have gone, and the proportion of pupils taken from the state sector. There is information on the background of the headteachers, the assisted places scheme, bullying and dyslexia, and new to this edition is an examination of league tables and their validity.
