I have the choice of 2 primary schools for a reception place for my daughter.
The first one is in a borough I use to live and then i also have a place at the borough that im currently living.
The first school is in a nice area,good reputation school. the second school which is nearest but still not walking distance is improving but in a deprived area and people have mixed views about it. Ofsted said good.
The first school i will have to get on the trains in the morinigs if i dont pass my driving test soon.
I went to visit for the parents day at each school. the first one the kids were polite and very friendly and it had a good feel. the second school was so disorganised. they were running around trying to find stuff when this evening was planned. 90% of the parents there could not speak english and all they seem interested in was their childs free school meal as they were on income support(sorry to cause any offense).
sorry to go on, but my question now is: would you choose a school that was far away for your reception starter. My DS is quite bubbly and bright not shy. i dont know if im being crazy but i will not feel like im doing the right thing by sending her to the school in this borough.
