Do you live near one of the bigger independent schools around England? We’re interested in hearing about your experience. Many private schools open their facilities to local communities, allowing people to use their sports facilities and green space; has that been your experience?

Many also build strong relationships with the local state schools and welcome them for sports and other events. If your children attend one of the local state schools, do you find that the schools have a positive relationship?
