Advice please on primary schools in Marylebone, central London
DH, DD (3.25) and I live in East London (almost Essex) in an area with good schools. DD has a place at the nursery of excellent local primary, which is RC. (They stress this means no guarantee of place in Reception)
However we want to move to Marylebone, near my only family in London, to escape suburbia and (hopefully) find like-minded types.
Question is, what to do about schools?? In the prospective area are three good schools, Hampden Gurney, St Vincent, and St Mary's Bryanston, all faith (we are practising 'mixed' family RC / CofE).
Does anyone know anything about these schools beyond the v good Ofsted reports?
Are they so over-subscribed it's not worth even thinking about?
What are the social profiles of the schools? Ofsted says many kids start off not speaking English. Does that mean professional ex-pats or refugees???
Are there even an private schools in the area?
Any insight appreciated.
