I've just had a look at our local school's ofsted report and I'm getting increasingly concerned about whether it will be the right place for DD. We live near Royston, so it is a bit of a trek to school in Cambridge, but if we need to send DD to school in Cambridge then we will. My first thought is the Stephen Perse pre-prep in Madingley. However I wonder whether she would be better off at Kings College School, partly due to the commute at prep level and I am not sure about the cross over between independent schools between pre-prep and prep. Obviously we need to start looking at open days etc. We will also need some element of wrap around care as we both work, though I do 80% so can finish at about 4pm. DD is bright (I'm sure most parents say that), active, enjoys music. I am really keen that she develops a love of learning and doesn't get bored.
So my questions are:
Any school suggestions?
Will the commute be too much for her?
How far do children travel to Cambridge schools, will she be the odd one out?
Thanks!
