State schools/private schools Kensal Rise v Queens Park

[neema1]

Hi all

We are trying to pick between two potential houses- one is on Clifford Gardens, Kensal and the other is on Glengall Road, just east of QP. We don't yet have kids but are hoping to stay in either house for at least 10 years and have kids in that time. We like both areas but are trying to think long term about the diffs and access to good state education might be one.

We don't yet know if we can afford private schools. Is either of these locations better for state schools? If someone has some information on this I would really appreciate it!

Also in terms of private schools, presumably that makes less of a diff on picking between these two locations.

Help gratefully received!!

I would buy a cheaper house and send the kids to the best private school you can stretch too, its a sad state of affairs but many state schools are failing and churning kids out with a very poor education.
If you can find a good state school send them till age 11 then switch to private as I feel this is the opting with the best results and value
