Hello all
I have one son who is 3 and we currently live in London. Considering a move to Folkestone. Like the fact irs coastal, cheaper than london and near family. Ideally we are looking to move somewhere we will eventually buy so want to make sure schools are good. Im not keen on the grammer school system are there any decent state schools in the area? Any othet thoughts on life as a young family in the area.

Folkestone is beautiful, but like anywhere else, there are some areas to avoid: West End area is better
Leas Coastal Park is great for under 5s
You will really love it here: becoming very popular and houses prices are rising
Haven’t much current knowledge of schools
London only 40 min by train if you do become homesick!
