Hi all
I would really appreciate some insight into particular area i've mentioned. We currently live in Merton, Mitcham Eastfields with our 2 DD 4 and 2. Eldest is at a local state nursery which is underperforming in all key areas, many of the children in her class don't speak English as a first language and she often tells me that some of the other children don't speak.
the main reason for a move would be better schools and we have had our eye on sutton high school, we are leaning towards independent schooling only because sutton high is commutable from where we area and the state schools near us arent great.
If we were to move i would ideally like to have at least one option of both a good state and independent.
Ive been reading a lot of posts on sutton and whilst the schools are great the area isnt rated highly in general as a nice place to live which is making me reconsider everything!!!
Growing up i never heard good things about croydon, it had a rough reputation and sutton just seemed forgotten, i vaguely remember skipping school to hang out there as i was less likely to get noticed!!
would love to hear from people who currently live there so i can try and figure what im doing with schools and life lol!
