Whilst in lockdown I've started doing some primary school research for our first DC. Not been through this process before. I know open days won't be til much later this year (hopefully).
There are the 6 primary schools that are nearest to us. (Don't want to be too outing but we live near town but about 20mins walk from the station). I've listed them below.
I know that DH and I will have to visit schools to really get a feel for them and where our DC might settle in best.
But I wanted to ask others who may have children at these schools already what their experience has been?
Also 2 schools are 3-7 years, so will have to send DC to a middle school if we pick one of them - what have people's experience been of this? Is it disrupting?
Thanks in advance!
