Hi there, would really appreciate some advice from any Bristol dwellers. I'm moving to Bristol from London with my husband and two girls (3yrs and 6 months) in January. Don't know the city at all! We're hoping to move to St. Andrews/Bishopston areas (if we can afford it...) and trying to learn about primary schools. The three I've been told about are Bishop Road, Ashley Down and Sefton park, but it's really hard to find out info about them online (apart from Ofsted). We are hoping for a school that prioritises pastoral care, outdoors and creativity alongside attainment (less bothered Tbh) but guess we're not in a position to be picky. Does anyone have any experience, knowledge or preference for these schools? Is Bishop Road's big size a problem? Do you need to live on Sefton park road to get in? I've heard horror stories about bristol kids being bussed out of town to failing primaries due to oversubscribed schools but hoping that is either out of date or scare-mongering...
Would really appreciate any tips or pointers! Thank you x
