Nurturing secondary for a bright but not academic & possibly ADHD boy in North London?

Can anyone recommend one? It would be for year 7. He’s at a state primary currently and doing OK but not academic & very resistant to any kind of pushing or pressure. I’m thinking King Alfred’s but where else? I don’t think he’d pass exams for the very academic schools.

Anyone? I am also wondering about the new north London Alleyns (too academic?) or Northbridge House.

Thank you. I think this is much too far, sadly.

Has anyone got any suggestions in London? We can’t travel that far or move.

My friends two kids went to northbridge, they are early twenties now. Not competitive to get in (she said) and both happy there.
