Another thread has got ms thinking about this and whilst it's a long way off (DD is not yet in reception!) I'd appreciate some advice.
We're currently in London but planning to move out before DD is at secondary school. We have some good local primaries but the secondaries are... not so good. Want to avoid the private route if we can. We're thinking of moving to West Kent, where I grew up, so this obviously means the whole grammar thing...
My question is, when should we be thinking about moving? When does the preparation for 11+ start in earnest? I was thinking that we'd need to move by the end of year 5 but wouldthis be too late?
Of course I know it's all hypothetical at the moment and we have no idea currently whether DD would pass 11+ or what the right school for her would be!
