Can you please help me to decide which school should i choose?
School number1: Very close to our house, outstanding, good results in KS2 (but not great), with after school clubs, new building, swimming pool but used to have pupils from council flats and a not so good reputation which is changing. It takes 60 every year and it has good ratio teacher:pupil
school number 2: a mile from us, CoE who takes other christian and a few community places, Ofsted is good but KS2 results Great, white middle class pupils, in a better area, no after school clubs and only takes 30 pupils and doesn't have a very good ratio teacher:pupil.
We recently moved here so not really sure where the other kids in the neighborhood go but according to Rightmove they go to school number 2 and another school which i didn't like (at least for the previous years because catchment areas now is significantly smaller).
I want my son to go to a school that will challenge him if he is very bright and will support him if he needs extra help. We are other white background that value a lot education.
any advice is much appreciated!
Thanks
