We are thinking about relocating from London and can't decide between Leamington spa or Stratford upon avon. We have DS in juniors and DD starting secondary so we are really focusing our move on an area with good schools, we are not looking for Grammer school as we prefer coed mixed schools. The main schools for Leamington seem to be north Leamington or campion or up out to kenilworth for Kenilworth school. Not sure on school in stratford but loved visiting the area. I have seen mixed reviews for Sydenham, are there small school catchment areas? Are the schools over subscribed?
I guess I'm looking for an over view on both areas with regards to living, schooling and general lifestyle, we are planning to rent until we can decide on area but it would be really good to get an idea. Any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks
