We are an international family moving to London this summer from overseas. We have a 2-yo son and a 5-yo daughter. They have both been attending a Montessori-style kindergarten since the age of 1.5. As it'll be a big change for us in any case, we thought we'd send our daughter to a state school. We are targeting areas in north London, such as East Finchley, Highgate, Archway and Tufnell Park. At this stage, we are looking into schools that put more emphasis on personal development than academic achievement. We have visited Martin, Muswell Hill, Northside and Highgate primary schools and liked Highgate the most. We are looking for other suggestions in these areas. We have heard good things about Tetherdown, Brookfield, Yerbury Grafton and Tufnell Park. Any feedback would be very helpful. Once we narrow down the list of schools, we'll optimize our residential choice to get into those schools. Thanks a lot!
