I’m going into Year 11 and need to apply to some new sixth forms because my schools far too pressurising and everyone is really really academics focussed to the point where there is no social aspect whatsoever to school. I wanna apply to Woodhouse, Holland Park and Westminster. Lmk what the socials are like at them!!!

Westminster School and/or Harris Westminster are...not exactly known for not being highly academics focused 
Westminsters at least definitely party hard too, though, but not the school for you if you don't want to be worked to the bone.

oh yeah its also in the posher part of hillingdon and the schools middle class.
its in northwood or more people think of it being in ruilsip. its in the bourough of hillingdon and is close to the border of hertfordshire. very near watford amd rickmansworth as well and its neighbors bourough of harrow as well as ealing.
social od say its a good mix of academic and social but i am going into year 11 so ita a little different for me but it has a biggish section in the school dedicated to sixth form and its where the sixth formers hang and socialise. i know for a fact that my year are very sociable especially the girls😂 also depends on who you find as friends though but that goes for everywhere

They have weekly assessments and very high standards - I knew a few people who hated it and one apparently left.

Yup it seemed very pressured. Worked well for some people who were really looking for that, less so for others who had other plans than hours of homework!

Westminster definitely has a great social life, I enjoyed it much more than my previous school. I'm not that into partying personally but there was definitely a massive party scene, and it tapped into the London private school network too.
