We are reconsidering our options after my mother's recent health scare, instead of moving further away from them (Upper Wharfedale) we are looking into moving North.
Could be anywhere as work is very flexible and from home.
DD is fairly bright, excels at music, art, English, loves Science, struggles with maths, hates most sports (self confidence thing), excels at swimming - bit early to pigeon hole her I know. Most importantly she is too kind, fairly shy/quiet, doesn't make friends easily, her self confidence away from home is easily squashed.
If we do move it could be fairly soon, within the next six months (in yr 5). We want a school that she can join now and stay at.
I don't know the Yorkshire schools, apart from Leeds Grammar I have no recent experience. Don't think that would be for DD at all but then that is because I only know rugby loving very lively boys there so I could be wrong.
Any ideas for us to think about would be great. We would want to live rurally but not in an isolated place, reasonable transport links close by. Nothing suburban or in town. Doesn't have to be in the Dales, or too close to M&D. We will be entirely led by school choice, wanting to be within 8 miles max.
