Harris Westminster Sixth Form

Hi, I will hopefully be attending HWSF too in September. I think it is quite likely that the school will ask you to have your hair a 'natural colour'. Did your previous school have a problem with it, or did you only dye after you finished GCSEs? I agree with you though, there aren't any clear rules, and I think the school needs to make their stance on these things much clearer (the dress code should be a lot more specific).

My school was super strict so they didn't even allow us to have dyed hair at all! Also no jewellery/makeup. :frown:

Hopefully our first assembly will cover any questions we still have, but just to be safe I'll dye it brown or something. Thank you!

How are you finding Harris Westminster now?
Is the commute okay?
Is the teaching good?
Is it socially goof outside of a work environment e.g. parties etc.
What is the best thing and the worst thing about it?

I will be attending the open morning which is coming up pretty soon. Harris Westminster sounds really good! I've applied already, hopefully I am called up for an interview.

I really enjoyed it when I went there on the open morning, but I'm not sure I'll have the grades to get it :frown:

I've applied for Spanish, Religious Studies, Economics and Maths. Already got an A* in Spanish, also an A in Religious Studies and I need an A in maths this year and as for economics I believe they judge your capability for this on the entrance exams.

Hey guys! Apart from Harris Westminster what other relatively good schools are still accepting admissions? I figure most selective schools have closed their applications... Having a hard time trying to find ones whose are still open
Thanks!
