Hi!
DH and I are looking at relocating to Norwich in summer 2018. Youngest will then be about to start yr1 and oldest yr3. I grew up in Norfolk but have been down in Brighton for over 10 years and feel a bit out of touch with where might be a nice area.
We would like an open, inclusive school- we came down to Brighton partly because of the physical and verbal abuse I experienced after deciding to wear a headscarf!!! I feel as if Norfolk has moved on since then, but would still like to find out if there are any areas/schools we should avoid or look in to.
My daughter currently attends Bilingual Primary in Hove and (despite our poor Spanish at home!) is picking up Spanish fast. Ideally we'd like to find a school which has a good language ethos or is in an area with good opportunities for her to continue Spanish (clubs etc).
My daughter is also quite fast in learning and although as a family we are quite 'alternative' and a little bit non-conformist (typical Brightonions really!), I am inteested in mainstream school and want to make sure she will get plenty of challenges and really enjoy learning. Ofsted is not so important to me (I work in a school!!!!) but would love any ideas from locals.
I think I really need to start visiting schools and checking out houses......will be up in half term!
Thank you in advance!
