Hello, I'm going to be applying next year for entry for daughter who will have turned 3 in 2020. she is at a small nursery school but not one that would be prepping for 4 plus. I either could leave her there and do entries to the all-through schools such as SHHS, Channing NLCS etc... OR enter a year earlier to start age 3 in sep 2020 at preps. Does anyone have info particularly on :

St Christophers hampstead
Sarum hall
the Village

Then also i'm open to other suggestions. We are living NW3. I am due to visit SH and Village soon. Interested to hear your thoughts, thank you

also i'm aware there is no 3+ for St Christophers. so this would be for Sarum hall village and others that enter then..

Highgate is a through school that does 3+ - it's coed though. Another alternative is to move her to Clowns which will help you prepare for 4+

Just bumping if any other opinions?
Yes we possibly may visit highgate

Highgate have just announced that they are moving from 3+ to 4+ so check with them which she will be able to do as it's a gradual transition over the next couple of years.

Habs girls is lovely.

Check out the website of the school. High gate is a good school. How old is she now?

The Village Prep is fabulous. Hopefully your DD is happy and settled now, but if not, definitely worth enquiring if there’s a place in her year group. It’s nurturing and the girls are so happy there. Their learning is personalised, so plenty of support available, as well as challenges and stretching for those that need it. Excellent 11+ results without being a ‘hot house’. Great facilities and a lovely large playground.
