Hi all,
My family are relocating to St Albans from Australia in Jan 2018. Girls are 8 and 12 year old and we're looking for primary/secondary schools. Understand it will be almost near impossible to get a place in a school of choice (ie Beaumont for secondary), particulary mid-term entry. Currently there are vacancies at Samuel Ryder (secondary) and Mandeville (primary) and wanted advice/thoughts? Though academic aspect is important, we would love a school that provides a positive and nurturing environment to assist with the girls transitioning into new school and country. Any other suggestions?
We are visiting in Oct and plan to visit as many primary and secondary schools as well as possible locations. Should we avoid any particularly locations or schools?
Also wanted to ask, is Herts CC likely to offer school places outside of St Albans if there are no places as schools? Plan on contacting them this week to discuss. I understand we can apply for schools 4 weeks before we arrive in UK - though there is a possibility my husband will be relocating in Nov.
Thanks
