If anybody could give me a list of names of any schools which are nice in these areas, or which ones to avoid, I'd be really grateful. Thanks!

I'm near here, but not this actual area. I've heard Perry Beaches Infant and Junior schools are nice. I have a friend who went to Cardinal Wiseman (secondary) and she doesn't speak very highly of it.

A documentary was made about Kings Rise (primary) a few years ago, when it was a failing school, and the headteacher swapped with another head, who basically changed the school round over a fortnight. I'm not sure what its like now, but it wasn't great at that time.

Anyone else?

I'm living in B32, but I have lived in B67 and B94. I do supply in and around Birmingham
