Primary Schools in Barnet

I could really do with some advice, DD is 2 so I've half-heartedly started looking for a nursery place for her and thought it might be nice for her to go to a nursery where she could continue into primary and I've discovered that the nearest primary schools are either: Roman Catholic (which we aren't), Closing imminently or Under Special Measures (2)!

I live in Barnet and naively assumed on moving here that we'd be spolit for choice but am now panicking! We're between the High barnet tube and Underhill - can anyone help with knowledge of local Primary Schools? Nursery notwithstanding, that seems to be the least of my worries!!!

I've had a look at the website and Ofsted report and it looks great but it says the age range is 5-7, where do they go after that?

How about Cromer Road or Woodridge Primary schools?

Grasvenor is a one form entry infant school - that's what makes it so special and unique. The children feed into Underhill Junior and are guarunteed a place there. New and very enthusiastic Head Teacher arrived there (Underhill Junior) 2 years ago and the school is improoving steadily.
