TMB, she is asking about a specific sem. Giving a different suggestion does not answer her question.
Debbiee, I did not go to gateshead new, but many of my friends did. Also, I live in gateshead so I get to see what the girls are like. The girls I know loved it there, and gained much. There is a good hanhala also. The type of girls who go vary a little but generally they are regular frum girls, many have been through beis yaakov or similar. It’s not a teachers training sem like gateshead old so learning in-depth texts is not as heavy as in other sems. Generally, the girls go with good hashkafos and come out prepared for life. There have been one or two incidents in the past with girls but they are rare, and to be honest, you can still get that in most sems anyway.
