I know many private schools have changed radically over last 5-15 years. Got well pissed up there with a niece a few years back. I know Jags and Alleyns do prepare for the 11+ for some extent but I thought part of the appeal was that they dont have to focus on it quite so much as the children either have a guaranteed place (Alleyns) or just need to pass the exam (Jags) rather than coming in the top tranche? While Alleyns is theoretically more selective JAGs outperforms Alleyns academically most years though there isn't much in it. equally focussed on academics but less so on all the extra curricular activities (in comparison) but still very good, less focused on confidence/leadership qualities although excellent at instilling in girls that its ok to fail; important to keep trying etc, some facilities are not ideal (ie language classes etc done in temporary outside buildings etc).

The children that benefit most from a 4-18 school are those in the middle of the range. Any reviews? (at least till they reach puberty and one would hope they have educational incentive enough by then.) so all girls schools are good if you can afford. Question to the OP: Are you looking to send your child to school at 4 so they can go straight through to 18 or would you be thinking about a move at 11? Have your daughter attend the pre-selection morning, and how quick did you get the response? Alleyns bent over backwards to accommodate us and we were shown around as a family.

Don't forget the logistical factors - where do you live in relation to each school? Assuming your looking for a 4-18 straight through, it's worth thinking about senior school differences between JAGS and Alleyn's. The consequence is that if you are looking for your child to move at 11+ you may find you have to do a lot of work with them outside of school for them to be competitive, compared with say sending them to Thomas's or similar pre-prep and prep. probably comparable on other stuff.

I am aware of colleagues of mine that have had the latter occur (not at JAGS or Alleyn's but comparable London/Surrey indies). Where the senior school is highly academic (definitely JAGS, to a slightly lesser extent Alleyn's) the parents of a quite academically weak child will generally have it "suggested" to them to move their child at 11 or earlier. Alleyn's from recollection is maybe better known, I recall good results in league tables.
