Garden Suburb versus Brookland (NW11)

I am thinking of taking my kids out of a top private school and moving them to either Garden Suburb or Brookland because of the VAT on fees. I'd be very grateful if anyone with kids currently there can share their experience on what these schools are like, including from an academic, teaching and social standpoint, and also in terms of facilities and SEN support (esp for ADHD). Many thanks!

Where do you live? They don't have overlapping catchment and unless someone leaves you won't get an in year place.

I am in the catchment for both and they both have in-year spaces.

Hi I am in a similar situation. Did you decide on any of these schools. Any feedback on either would be welcomed. Thanks
