BUT... Cobham Intermediate had more good reviews than bad reviews meaning that it's a Tie!
Levi - do you know that when I was a Year 8 I went to Cobham Intermediate? I love that you chose them to compare to OIS! Google ratings are indeed an interesting choice of tiebreaker - I wonder why Cobham has a lower rating?! I might have to go and have a look....
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting way to compare these two schools! Are they close to each other? It seems like one is quite a bit bigger than the other. Do you know many students at both schools?
ReplyDeleteOur school district (in Illinois, US) has 11 elementary schools, all with 7 grades (kindergarten - 6th grade) and about 50 kids per grade level. It would be interesting to do a comparison like you have done of our schools!
Thanks for sharing!
