Hi, anyone here in Edinburgh with current knowledge of primary schools? We have just moved to Edinburgh for work. Currently renting in Stockbridge but will be looking to buy (though scared by Edinburgh house prices!) and primary schools are a major factor in the decision where to look. Eldest DC is nursery age. At the moment we are in catchment for Stockbridge Primary or St Mary's RC Primary. DC are baptised Catholic so hopefully either should be an option. Would anyone recommend one over the other? Neither seems to have a current care report that I can find online.
Also wondering about Flora Stevenson's, though we're not currently in catchment for them. Anyone know how admissions work the City of Edinburgh Music School at P1 level? The link to admissions info seems to be broken on their website.
Or does anyone have experience of the Gaelic school, especially as a non Gaelic speaking parent? Interested in the possibility of gaining an additional language, though DH is not convinced we could support DC adequately.
We'd be hoping to go private at secondary so secondary catchments less of an issue. I doubt we could afford it for primary as though, especially with house prices the way they are.
