Advice on recent performance of Cuttelsowe Primary school

[sxxd]

Hi All,
Need desperate advice on Primary schools in North Oxford. I will be moving into Oxford next moth. Will be working in Cutteslowe area and my DD (gifted child) will be staying with me. DH is abroad. Have been offered a in-year seat at Cuttelsowe. But am worried about their academic performance... it doesnt seem great and the fact that there are not many great reviews about the school on this forum either.
What are my options? P&J seems out of question since we are not Christians... wolvercote seems to be always oversubscribed... Would OHS Junior be a better option if DD doesnt get adjusted . My priority is a good academic school.
PLEASE ADVISE.... Moving in from abroad and this school search is overwhelming!

Have you spoken to the admissions office at the LA? They can let you know what places are available where, and from that you make your choice. You cannot be admitted on roll until you live in the area, so by the time you arrive here any spare places may have been filled. As an in-year arrival, your choice may be very limited.

Hi Soontobe6,

Thanks for the prompt reply! I spoke with the school and they said that they currently have a seat in the school and of course, if the seat is still available by the end of the month, they can take in DD. I cannot apply formally yet since no address :( but need to understand what might be the best residence area option to search in. I am thinking wolvercote/summertown/jericho.
Any idea about the school as such. their results are not impressive...

In fact, how mad would the bus/car journey be from west side of East Oxford area St. Clements area into Cutteslowe if I were to get a house near the St. Andrews/East Oxford Primary catchment area?

I'd say OHS if you want a good acdamic school for a gift girl.
Driving from st Clements to Cutteslowe could be painful in rush hour.
