Harris Westminster Entrance Exams

Idek bruhh

Maybe I should change from Maths to History ahahha

do you want to explain why you left the school?

-Could not stand a 6 day week every week, when they could easily make it 5
-lots of wasted time on cultural perspectives
-waste over an hour every week travelling across London to do pe when we could do it much closer to school
-Claims to reimburse travel costs without actually doing it
-claims of free school meals but not provided (atleast when I was there)
-No playground, and lunch is like 90 mins so you have to wonder central London for an hour doing nothing or just sit in a classroom for ages.
-The jouney on the tube is too hot and conjested for my liking
-shops around the school too expensive.

one student left and we still have 140 students who stay because they enjoy it 1. Yes we stay in skl longer but that's for our own benefit because we learn more and have longer holidays then any other skl 2. Like I said CP is not a waste of time and you'll find that skl like CNI also do CPS but not with as luck of a variety as ours and 3 traveling to skl is not a waste of time what do u wanna do be home skled so what u have ti travel to skl that's not such. Big deal 4. Travel money is re embursed so get your facts right 5. Kids do get free skl meals 6. This ain't primary skl where u need a play ground to play cops and robbers in and if you were nature enough to even come to Harris you would use your 90 min lunch break to eat socialize and do study 7. The tunes are too hot I'm sorry would u like Harris westminister to call up TFL and change that for you didn't know you were related to the queen and u deserve privileges people travel into London for work u either get sued to the conditions of traveling in London now or you ca. Stay at home and jot leave your house because everything is a waste of time for you and 8. If shops are expensive bring pack lunch and there is a student meal deal offer for garrison westminister kids

Im not going to have a petty argument with whoever wrote that. I was asked for my opinion and that is what i gave. Every reason i gave was true at my time of attending this school, even if it has now changed it should not take a month to start providing free school meals and travel help. Additionally, i did not learn/gain one thing from my cultural perspectives in my time there. If I add up my total time spent in lessons, my current school outperforms hwsf in this measure in its 5 day week, so obviously the timetable is heavily faulted if it needs six days for less contact time.
I would bet money that the majority of people would want an outside area seperate from that of the public where they can relax of play some sport outside.
If this person could read they would see that I said the tube is too hot and conjested "FOR MY LIKING", I did not ask hwsf or anyone else to change this, I gave it as a reason for my leaving.
Now, I don't care one bit whether you choose to listen to me or this person. It is your choice.

Did you go the open day??????????????????!!!!!!!!!!! why is no one replying to this bloody questions ffs.

call up the school tomorrow

I also attended one of the open events and was pretty amazed from what I saw. I also applied and received a letter regarding the exams. I was shocked when I looked at my candidate number which is 401

I think that exams won't be too easy because I asked a student there about the exams and he said they were very hard.

I spoke to the head on twitter through dm's.

I don't know how to describe.

Firstly, the way he acts in videos on youtube are completely cringey and you can see straight through his fake enthusiasm. Not to say he isnt enthusiasm but he is making it seem like it's a 300 year established school whereas they havent even finished their first year!

He is a little blunt - from my experiences obviously.

You have a good point there.

Personally I wouldn't mind the building as long as the teaching and opportunities it offers are good.
But I heard that they mostly use Westminster's facilities, if you were wondering, so you would have access to good facilities.

I can more than guarantee that "the head" has, or will read this. He did the same last year, on the thread http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2488867

Could not care less - I am not applying there anymore.

You didn't make that clear before, I was unaware you were no longer applying. Therefore I think I deserve a slightly less abrasive answer.

Have fun wherever you go

Thank you Wesleigh and bobsta it was very helpful and i hope i make it into the sixth form.

Thanks once again
