Hi,
We are planning to move to Leeds from London (to be closer to our northern family) and having visited are looking at the buying in Chapel Allerton, Roundhay (though probably too expensive), Moortown area. We need to keep it Central as DH will be doing regular travel to London by train.
I understand there's no catchment areas and school admission is based on who is nearest, so for popular schools you need to be very close. Our daugher will be starting school in 2020.
Gledhow and Talbot are clearly very popular but Kerr Mackie seems to raise more odd comments or doubts from people we've spoken to without us getting a clear idea why. Does anyone have any thoughts about why? I think this approach, of finding a school we like and focusing our house search on that area, seems the best approach to move to an new area or am I missing something? I'd appreciate local expertise!
Thanks.
