Choosing between Dulwich College and Newton Prep for an academic shy son

Hello, we are an overseas family moving to UK this summer.
we have the option of relocating to Dulwich and accepting an offer for Dulwich College. Or we could relocate to Battersea and send him to Newton prep and then aim for Co-eds in future.
Both of us work from home hence flexible in where we locate.

If there are any current dulwich college or newton prep parents, please do give feedback on the schools.

our son (8) is academic and shy. Loves reading more than football. He is currently in a coed. With DC i worry the atmosphere might be too boisterous for him also he might find the sports challenging. NP im worried he will need to go through the stress of 11+/13+ and it would be yet another change instead of giving him some stability/continuity.
