Hello, we are moving back to NW3 from overseas I would like to hear your opinions regarding the Village and Heathside schools as my daughter has now been offered places at both of these schools in September (grade 1 at five years old). I also have a younger son so Heathside would allow both to be in the same school. I have lived in NW3 before and would prefer to live in Hampstead again (we don't have accommodation yet).
I have never visited the Village school but liked Heathside when I went to see it nearly five years ago. I have spoken to a parent at the Village School and she spoke highly off it. I know neither school is the most academic in the area but it sounds like that they are quite nurturing? This could suit my shy daughter.
(If we were to offer place at Hampstead Hill at last minute I would gladly accept it as I am impressed with the academic side of things there. My daughter is also in the waiting list for St Christopher's as we had paid the registration fee when my daughter was young, but really don't see her getting in as she hasn't been tested and my friend's daughter has been on the waiting list for ages. SHHS we have no chance until 7+. Also waiting to hear from Devonshire but somehow feel happier with the Village or Heathside.)
