Sixth form NLCS vs St Helen's

Hi, i've received offers from north london collegiate and st helen's for sixth form. However, st helen's is at walking distance while nlcs has a 50 minute commute.

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on whether the teaching quality at nlcs is worth the commute, or if long journeys to school affects grades during a-levels.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

If you're definitely not boarding(apparently you can't), St helens will be a better choice. Commute won't effect your grade, but it's always easier and simpler to walk to school. It will save you time and you probably can sleep more.
