Camp hill girls or Five ways for secondary education
I have managed to get admission into camp hill girls in first round and got place from waiting list for five ways school. Just wanted to know which school is better and if things have changed since introduction of the catchment area. Highly appreciate some feedback.

Hi!!! So I'm a current CHG student from 2019-now, I am currently in year 12 and I will try to be clear on the pros and cons of both schools and I will try not to be biased. CHG or FVWs? That's a very good question, for one, CHG is an all girls school (shared sixth form block with CHB) so you would be in an all girls environment, while FVWs is a mixed school with a roughly 1:2 female to male ratio. Personally I found that 1:2 slightly uncomfortable. Both schools are primarily STEM based schools, however the education in other areas are equally awesome. CHG on one hand can get rather competitive, if you aren't prepared for some really smart hard working talented classmates and might find this almost toxic competition too much pressure, FVWs might be a better option. However, when it comes to GCSE and A level grades CHG wins big time. When is comes to things like diversity and celebrations, clubs etc, I can't speak for FVWs but CHG was the pioneer in all of the KEVI schools when it comes to diversity, equality and inclusiveness, this doesn't mean FVWs does not do that, they just aren't as big for things like this(From what I've heard). Another, is you may realise that both schools have a large proportion of asian students (South asian/Southeast asian/East asian/Central asian) although it means beautiful culture days, it also mean hardcore studying pressure (and the reeking sweaty smell of some boys that have yet to discover a shower). Feel free to ask any more questions about more detailed specifics and I will try to answer them!
