Handcross, Staplefield or Warninglid primary school?

Hi, I wondered if anyone has children at these schools? I'm running the gauntlet of choosing a primary school and am well and truly confused. Handcross has now been rated outstanding, but still carries a questionable reputation because of the support of a large amount of special needs children, although I was surprised about the general good buzz in the school. Any knowledge of these gladly received! Thanks.

no but i went to handcross when i was little Grin

am slightly Hmm that you think having a large amount of SN children makes their reputation questionable or that they wouldn't be right for your child though.

i would say visit them all, and go on gut feel.

where do you actually live? handcross is oversubscribed so if you don't live in the village you may not have luck getting in anyway

Hi there, oh sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. What I meant by that is that I've heard they spend a lot of time on'the SN children, which is great but maybe to the detriment of others. Basically I know no one there and am just going entirely on rumour! I thought it had a great feel to it and just want to make sure I'm making the right decision. Yes, I'm in the catchment though don't live in the village. Aggghhhh! Liked Staplefield too but it was quite different.
