Is Dcgs better than Dchs

For law/ engineering (I haven't decided yet 😭)

Well since employers don't care where you did your A-levels and you should realistically be able to succeed in whichever A-levels you take at either which is what unis care about (not where you did them), it's really up to you.

No idea, does it really matter if it's "STEM focused" or not? Ultimately you ought to have competent teachers regardless of the schools focus (and should complain if you don't...), and equally a large amount of your outcome is going to depend on you.

No idea about the bullying thing but I don't think girls are less likely to be bullies than boys. They just bully in different ways as far as I can tell.

Hi!

I used to go to DCGS and went from Year 7 to the sixth form. I can confirm that there was basically no bullying when I was there (a couple of years ago).

In general, DCGS is a more maths and science based school. They also have a new Chemistry and Physics block in the school. So, more ideal for engineering. DCHS on the other hand is more centred around humanities. Possibly, more suited for eventually studying law. That depends on what sort of law career you would like to pursuit.

Hope this helps you and you get the school you want.
