Hi all
Single mum moving from London alongside my 8 year old daughter and interested in the above schools for her. She is quite sensitive and I feel needs a more nurturing, smaller school than her current one to flourish. Can anyone recommend any of my suggestions please?
If it helps for context I am also considering Steiner for her if I were to stay in London. I love their child centred focus. The fact they spend more time outdoors and that they also value the creative subjects equally. However I do have some reservations about this for long term. And I won’t lie I feel ready for us to escape the concrete jungle of London 🫣
I would so appreciate any advice.
Thank you in advance x

Sorry also forgot to mention Sompting Abbots as an option we are interested in also 🙏🏻

I’m an old Sionian and as a quiet sensitive girl it was perfect for me.
But my experience was in the 90s so a bit out of date😂

Aww thank you so much for your reply. I can imagine it’s different now but still nice to hear your time there was a positive experience and you would recommend it :)
