Hello, we are planning to move to Bromley from Blackheath this year. We have looked around and like Pett's Wood and Chislehurst in particular. The problem is, I can't figure out the schools! My husband is absolutely determined not to send our son to independent school as he is a strong supporter of the state school system. I am too, but I did go to independent school as a child, so there are a few things I feel quite strongly about, like having a smart uniform (shirt and tie etc). Can anyone give me some advice on what the best schools are? Is Red Hill better than Edgebury or the other way round? Where do children go to school in Pett's Wood because there doesn't seem to be many schools for such a large area? Are all the wealthy families in Pett's Wood sending their children to independent school? Is Crofton Park too big to be outstanding? I'm also interested in Farnborough as the school there is outstanding but is it a nice place to live? It's all very confusing! I can't decide between and beautiful house in a beautiful street in Pett's Wood or a smaller house in a normal looking street in Farnborough just because of the school! Help!!!!
