DD is in year 1. She goes to an outstanding state primary for girls and boys. DS is at nursery and around Easter is likely to get a Reception place at the same school. As soon as DS gets his offer we are going to put our house on the market.
We currently live right in the middle of town in a tiny house. We moved here 5 years ago with a bump and a baby and have rapidly outgrown it (but big win was getting DD into lovely school).
We can afford more space on the edges of our town & have 2 areas to house hunt and would value your opinion.
Neighbourhood 1 we could afford a medium sized house in the catchment of a good state high school for girls and boys.
Neighbourhood 2 we could afford a big house in the catchment of an outstanding high school for girls so DD would be sorted but DS would have to get a bus to the next town to a new academy.
Seems mad to be thinking about his high school when he's only 4 but there you go!

WWYD? Buy a medium sized house near great school or big house where schools will be trickier?
