Tunbridge Wells primaries

Hi
Thinking of moving here. All the primaries seem to be marked good. I understand Claremont is outstanding but no chance of getting in really.
Can anyone guide me as to what the differences are? It may help us decide which area to live in.
I'd love a primary with a forest school attached.
Thank you!

Hello we live in Tunbridge wells. The catchment for Claremont is very small. In reality most schools in TW are pretty good. Was there anything in particular you wanted to know? Will try and help as much as I can. Did you have an idea of what part of TW you might move to?

Hi
Thanks. I suppose if there are any schools to avoid , or if any schools are much bigger than the others. Also - silly - but if any have more outside space than others like a playing field? And yes if you know if any do forest school? We like the village bit of TW but aware Claremont catchment is tiny so not sure want to risk buying there and not getting any schools! Also like around queens road/woodbury park road way but not sure what schools are there?

Well, you'd certainly be close enough to TWGGS/Skinners at Secondary level from Queen's Rd - barring the small matter of passing the 11+.
