Please excuse the long-ish post, DS and I just moved to London last week so I am like Alice in Wonderland at the moment.
I have secured him a place in a private school prior to moving, as I read local primaries are over-subscribed and hard to get in. I am considering moving him to a state primary for next school year (Sept 2021) and he will be in Year 2. Is this a wise move if I want him to go to a private secondary? Where do kids get tutors from, and from what age usually? (I ask as I read many threads saying tutors would be needed if I move to private in secondary)
The closest schools to us are Deer Park, Marshgate, Holy Trinity CoE, Vineyard, St Elizabeth's Catholic and maybe Sheen Mount? (I dont know if 1.37 miles is considered close). Deer Park is the closest to us but I can't seem to find anything on the school - can someone please provide me with some information?
Ideally I would like to visit the schools before listing them on the application but with Covid I'm not sure if it's possible, so would really appreciate any input.
Many thanks in advance
