Thanks all. We’re joint catchment so have a good chance (but no guarantee of either). They will both have friends at both so that doesn’t come too much into play. We did the open evenings and found them both very impressive. I think Kesgrave is clearly the nicer school from a pastoral side but the apparent results gap between them and Northgate is very concerning |

Good people of TWTD. Your experiences please.
I didn’t go to school in Ipswich myself so have no first hand knowledge. The time has come to select high school for my son (and daughter in a couple of years time).
We have a reasonably good chance of getting in either Northgate or Kesgrave, both of which are good reputationally and are struggling to choose between the two.
It would seem that Northgate is Better academically (league table wise) but anecdotally you hear tales of bullying etc. Whilst Kesgrave seems much better from a pastoral point of view but the results are not as good.
Both my kids are reasonably bright, well behaved, and (to date) have not had issues at school.
So, any of you kind people with children at either of the above that can share experiences or even TWTD members who have recently left (or maybe are still at) either, would appreciate any input on what they’re really like - pros and cons etc. Etc.
Many thanks in advance.

100% would love this. Didn’t know it until mentioned previously on here but really think it could work, plus it’s unique and has relevance to the team. If anyone does know the dj can we get it on playlist before game.
While sweet Caroline did work, it’s so unoriginal |

It's all based on world rankings. Poland are 6th in world so pot 1, Spain ranked 8th so miss out due to 65th place Russia hosting so guaranteed top pot |

Can the club not encourage the fans to sing along, make a bigger deal of it. Words on scoreboard, maybe get a singer along first time for us to sing with etc. |

Would be amazing if we had a proper club anthem for the fans to really get behind at the start of every game. I know it will never happen though.
Anyone got sensible suggestions,
'My Way' with its sir bobby links would be my proposal |

We go every year and would recommend for a family. Research sites extensively as they will vary massive but you get some amazing places.
Would recommend using eurocamp to research, then once you've chosen a site seeing if you can book direct. You'll be amazed how much cheaper it will be plus the mobile homes are usually bigger and in better locations |
