UPDATED – SEPTEMBER 2016. It’s always a good idea to attend open events at a few secondary schools before you choose the best fit for your child. Personally and professionally, I am looking for a school that will nurture my child and embed a strong sense of community.  Whilst it’s true that results matter, I’m keen to find an environment in which my child will feel included and empowered as a learner. I want him to take responsibility for his own learning – something which we try to instill in our students here at Better Tuition – and I also want him to attend a school which recognises that subjects such as PE or Food Technology are every bit as important as the sciences or maths.

I’ve assembled a schedule of open events –  days and evenings – at local secondary schools. These are the main schools attended by young people from Stretford and Urmston. Unfortunately, this post has just missed the Open Evening for Flixton Girls School, which was yesterday.  I’ve organised the list of schools in alphabetical order.

UPDATE:

Upcoming open evenings in autumn 2016:
