Schools near Vale Road/Hermitage Road

[Valeroadmum]

I've just started looking at schools in the area. Any opinions about St. Mary's, Tiverton, Woodberry Down, Stamford Hill, Seven Sisters, Stroud Green? I'd love to get into Chestnuts but I think we're out of the catchment...

I don't have kids there, but I have heard really good things about Woodberry Down.

St Mary's: very highly spoken of by parents who have kids there, but you have to be Catholic, and the parents there park on the double yellow lines outside the school everyday obstructing traffic.

Tiverton I think a child would be very left out if they dont speak Somali.

Stamford hill: rather shabby inside, lots of change anticipated. I think it could be rather good soon.

Feel free to send me a pm if you have any questions. We found a very good school for dd a bit further away with spaces.
