Highfield Primary School or Harris Acadey Shortlands

[Bromleysouthresident]

Hi mums,
It’s the first time I am writing here hoping to get answers from mums who has experiences with primary schools in Bromley South and Shortlands area.

My twin boys were born in Sept 2014. They are 3 years old now. We moved to Bromley south to come close to the Highfield Primary School as it’s an outstanding school. Recently found out that Harris Academy Shortlands also moved very close to us last year. Which primary school would you suggest I send my twin boys. Do you also have any experience with the early years in either of the schools?

I have friends with children in both schools and they are happy with them both. Highfield has separate infants and juniors I think, so I don't know if this is an issue for you but as you have twins it won't really matter (as opposed to siblings of different ages). I'd prefer Highfields because I'm not a fan of the Harris approach (quite a corporate style of management).
