The support from teachers is very bad. Its their way or the highway.
You would expect more from the teachers and school. I would think twice before sending your child to sevenoaks
Overall a really great school with good people and teachers. Some say that the academic culture is intense and occasionally toxic. However, I haven’t experienced this. Also the food has really declined over the last few years and got much worse with COVID. Not too much homework from Y7- Y11 but 6th form is hard. IB is a nightmare and don’t believe the videos of students saying that they enjoy it over A levels because I assure you 100% they do not. That is not just my opinion, I would guess 95% of my year dislike IB over A levels. It is much harder and forces you to take subjects you aren’t good it. The other great elements of the school make up for this and for me personally, it was not worth starting at a new school when I was settled at Sevenoaks.
