You may not have much time to check. AA is good; just go ahead with their suggestions.

You can also check these school through http://www.best-schools.co.uk/league-tables/a-level-passes.aspx

Best Luck...

I can't see the school you mention. Which ones and maybe I can help.

Do not use best schools league table because this is a company league table. I think better to check one like financial times or the times for results. Although I think do not only use league table when choosing schools. Should also consider environment, facilities, single sex or boarding etc.
What is your daughter's grades like. Out of the school list below, I know girls at:

1) St. Mary's School, cambridge
2) Godophin School
7) Berkhamsted School
12) Malvern St James
13) Queenswood School

Queenswood is very convenient to London but not in the city so I like this one the most. St Mary's is centre of Cambridge and nice environment.

Thanks for your sharing! In fact, I wont treat the school ranking as 1st priority for determination which school I would apply,
The major issue for me to select the school is... School ethos, full boarders percentage in the school, chinese & HK students percentage , teachers caring to the pupils,
School facilities, extra-cirricular activities etc..

My daughterˊs grading are overall in between to B-C, top 100 schools might have a bit critical to enter. However. We're informed by AA that st. Maryˊs school cambridge & Shrewsbury school confirmed to accept my application. I would like to get more information about these schools.

More sharing would be appreciate ! Thanks

Could someone sharing some information about queenswood, kingwood, bede's school? such as.... Which one you will prefer to sit in? or others information inputs will be much appreciate. Thanks

I would choose
1) St. Mary's School, cambridge
2) Godophin School
6) Sherborne Girls
8) Christ's Hosiptal

Which I would choose godophin school as first, sherborne girls second, Christ hospital fourthh and lastly St Marys
I had a few friends went to Oxbridge from Godophin, great location (Salisbury) so I rank them first
Sherborne Girls is again great school
Christ Hospital only started recruiting overseas students these few years, but i felt they over-recruited (I have a girl who studies there and that's her remark, she went to MaryXXXXX school in HK)
St Marys is popular among HK parents because of its location (and I always think they are bias whenever a school is called St... but nevertheless, a good school if you want a strict environment)
