Wimbledon or streatham - looking for family home near good state primaries AND secondaries

[Butterflypoetry]

So I'm still on the hunt for my family home. I had to stop my search for a few months because it was getting stressful. We are hoping to find our family home - one that will be home for at least the next 15-20 years. I love wimbledon and there are houses in my budget near worple road, some near north of Haydons Road station that I saw. I know wimbledon is full of great state primaries, but there are barely any state secondaries (i could be wrong?(Rutlish and Ricards?) We are non-religious people.

We also looked at streatham which seemed to have not just great state primaries but also a better selection of secondaries (dunraven, graveney)

I know streatham is a totally different vibe to wimbledon, but the house in both areas are similar in size and design.

I guess my question to families with children living in wimbledon, did you have to move when your kids turned secondary school age? or should i be looking at streatham if I'm looking for a home for the next 20 years if my priority is to be near to both great state primaries and secondaries. i suppose i'm looking for reassurance that it's ok - and that those schools are not bursting at the seams full of applicants.

ok i'm totally ranting now. my apologies but would appreciate some feedback

I don’t know about Wimbledon, but Graveney is in Furzedown, Tooting which is a great area, very family friendly with plenty going on locally. Graveney is excellent overall, although I would say that it would appear support for children with SEND can be inconsistent and can sometimes be severely lacking. There is an outstanding primary school just up the road from Graveney, Penwortham, and lots of the children that attend there move onto Graveney. In some years the catchment can be tight, and there are 70 places which are reserved for pupils that score highly on the Wandsworth test, which can be a source of annoyance for local people who often find themselves just out of catchment.
