If you had to choose between St Mary Abbott’s in High St Ken and St Peter’s Eaton Square (in Victoria really), which one would you go for?
Equally (less) likely to get into either - just wondering if there is anything I should know about them?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

From what I've heard, St Mary's Abbot is supposed to be slightly better. Though the catchment is incredibly tiny if you don't attend the church. David Cameron sent his daughter there if I'm not mistaken. Feeder into Holland Park school.

St Peters is not a bad choice to have either. Not too much of a difference between them. Probably worth visiting them in person to get a better feel for each place.

Depends on what your expectations are from them. If you want your child to attend an independent secondary then you will have to invest in tutors for 11+ no matter what you choose.

St Mary Abbott's is not a feeder school for Holland Park School. There is no such thing. Entry depends on distance only within bands allocated at the banding test. Obv after the other criteria which go ahead of distance such as Looked after children, siblings etc. And Art Aptitude places if which there are 24 in each yr 7 intake.
