Hi, we are moving to the Borough of Bromley soon. DD is nearly 8 so want to buy near a suitable secondary school. I would be very grateful if anyone with experience of the area and schools could give me some advice, before I start looking at houses. Many thanks x

Meadowquark - how difficult was it to find something in the Langley catchment?

One grammar school for girls, Newstead woods. Excellent but suits some not all, obv. Stuff competition to get in.

Langley good to v good. Bullers wood pretty good. Both girls only. In the north of the borough, Harris crystal palace pretty good. Hayes ok in most subjects but not all. Langley boys open to girls in 6th form.

Apparently Charles Darwin in biggin hill improving. Used to be low aspiration.

Bullers Wood very good for girls, Chislehurst and Bickley nice areas.

I bought in the catchment of Langley Park School.. (I hope - I will find out in 3 years time!) It depends on where you commute to, what budget, do you need primary school etc.
