Herts primary schools and good locations to move to for them

[Grace16]

Totally going bonkers about primary schools and really need some advice. Independent vs outstanding state and how does one know if schools are really outstanding if ofsted has been inspecting seven years apart if not failing? Also thinking of relocating to somewhere else in hertfordshire thats not too built up and green and obviously nice for children to grow up in... small town or village. Be so pleased for any replies/ experience/ info/ advice Xxx
