opinion for primary school in bromley ,london

[shura]

I am new to Bromley and I am considering following three schools for primary education of my DS:

1. Clarehouse
2. Highfield
3. Valley Primary School

I am not sure about positive and negative points of these schools so would highly appreciate if someone can throw their views on what is positive and negative about these schools.
Appreciate your help and time.

I don't know any of these but my very fussy friend was torn between Valley and Parish. I think Parish won because of better outdoor space, at least that was one of the pluses for Parish.

valley must have a tiny catchment. They took on bulge classes but I heard that they will revert back to 2 form entry so you may want to check this with the school.

Have a friend whose daughter is at Highfield and it sounds amazing. As with all of your choices, you need to live on the doorstep.

Clare house is very good. However you need to be close to stand a chance of getting in!

tnk u all for your reply..i m on my way to finalise property and getting one .15 miles from calre house ..and one with same distance from highfields..but highfield has recently converted in academy ..does any have idea is it positive or nagative about school ..one more thing heard a lot about clare house but its not outstanding on of stead. i have not got chance to go in open day and now its too late as i need fill form by the end of december ..can any body share there view about two schools plzz.

Valley is an acadamy as well. There is a huge pressure to convert most primaries and ours looked into it as well but stopped the process so far.

I think most good or outstanding schools will convert voluntarily in the next years and the "in need of improvement" won't have lots of choice.

I think that Valley and Highfield (and actually, I thought Clare House too) have converted to Academies under their own little Academy consortium. Basically, I believe that all schools in Bromley have to convert to Academy status. Even if one hasn't now, it will very probably be in the pipeline for the future.

tnk a lot noramum and allyfe ..but still can any body share more opinion about clarehouse and high field school as i need to tale decision in a day or two.

I have heard great things about Valley but you do need to live virtually in the playground. I am afraid I know nothing about the other two.
