We have just had our offer accepted on a house in Shepperton, which we're delighted about, but we had to apply for a secondary school place in our current location, which is Teddington. My son has been offered a place at Teddington, which is great, but it will be difficult for us to get him there as we don't drive. We're also looking at what's available around Shepperton, and we've heard that Thamesmead is good. I wondered if anyone has any experience of this school at all? It has a "good" Ofsted rating (same as Teddington), but this doesn't tell me much. I'd really appreciate some opinions on this and other local schools!
