How to select whether you're applying to tiffin girls sixth form or tiffin boys?

This prolly sounds dumb but I have no idea how

I think tiffin girls is more stressful from what I've heard. They have similar facilities and opportunities I think just the girls school tends to do better academically I think.

hi
I go to tiffin girls, and I would definitely recommend it, esp because our school is a bit more modern, with a newly built sports centre, etc, but tiffin boys does offer some subjects that we dont, like politics but yeah
hope this helped!

I'll give you some pros and cons as someone who goes to tgs:
Tiffin boys will let you go home when you're not in lessons but tiffin girls will make you stay from 8 30 to 15 15 in year 12. In yesr 13 you can go home at lunch if no lessons. You can still go out at lunch though but have to be back before the end.
Tiffin girls dress code is very lenient. You can wear pretty much whatever you want as long as it's not see through or cropped. Tiffin boys dress code is much stricter- you really have to be wearing a skirt/ formal trousers and a button up shirt or jumper every day.
Tiffin boys will make you do a TON of PE/ games whereas Tiffin girls will only make you do one PE lesson a week.
Tiffin boys offers more subjects (such as philosophy and german).
Tiffin girls get better grades but less oxbridge offers. It is harder to get into so my theory on it is that, as oxbridge compares your grades to the rest of your cohort they will more likely select TBS students as the rest of their year has worse grades.
Tiffin girls is prob more stressful academically but I'd say has nicer students overall (although students at both schools will be nice).
Tiffin girls has nicer building but tiffin boys has better canteen.
Lmk if you have any more questions x
