Hello! I recently moved to England from Los Angeles, and am looking for an area to live that is within a 50 minute train ride to London (for my husband), and has great schools (most important). The education system here is so different, so I am quite lost and am not making any progress googling and trying to decipher league tables! (I have a 4 year old and a baby).
We are currently renting in Saffron Walden, and don't love it, although we do like my son's nursery, Dame Bradbury's. We think we would like to go the private schools route, but are open to other options.
I am looking for a school that fosters creativity, is nurturing, and is academically rigorous. We will literally move anywhere within a 50 minute radius of London!
I know my requirements are probably too vague, but if anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much in advance!
