Teddington / Twickenham - raising a child and primary schools

[Lottothink]

We absolutely loved Teddington and Twickenham is nice too. I wanted to know your views on living and raising children in both areas. Which one do you prefer ? Cons pros . I know that latter has better links to the city as we both will be commuting but we don't want to make the decision on that basis.

what are best state and private primary school options? how is the community ?

Many thanks

oh dear - drugs .. we haven't thought about it . we hope for private route on especially secondary school. we are kindergarten stage now. I went to private school in another country and later years drugs were around a bit but I never tried it - I wasn't a nerd either! so you never know . it is also what your child is all about too. scary though,. still scary as it is a real risk.
