St Albans is a lovely location and it has fantastic schools, whereabouts were you looking in the area? a lot depends on catchment areas but there aren't any bad schools so to speak x

@sleepismysuperpower1.

Thank you for your information and reply for my another post.

I don't have any specific location. All I am going to work in Cricklewood for another 3 or 5 years.
Near to St Albans City station or a good location anywhere, I think I can drive to Cricklewood as well.

thank you again

thanks
Prasanth

You need to visit these places as a first step. Borehamwood is very different to St Albans - I think you are probably just looking at the train line. A lot of St Albans schools are over subscribed and you need to live close to them to get in. You also need to look at particular areas and go on the school websites, read Ofsted reports. You can also get information on applications and how over subscribed schools are on the Hertfordshire website.

That's where you can compare schools on lots of stats.
