We're planning our final move to settle long term - we are a family of 3 plus dog. The reason for our move is for a better future for our 10yr old boy.

I have spent a lot of time researching areas and secondary schools. I am a stay at home mum and my husband works from home. We want to live in a safe preferably no crime area, easy access to Oxford.

Any advice, suggestions or recommendations will be much appreciated Smile

Eynsham, Witney or another village west of Oxford might suit you. Good schools, good bus connection to Oxford, beautiful countryside and Blenheim very close. Bad traffic at commuting times, but shouldn’t be a problem if you wfh. I relocated here after growing up in Lancs and haven’t looked back. Good luck.

Thank you for help - any suggestions for secondary schools? I've looked online only at - Bartholomew, Cherwell and Henry Box.

We're coming to Oxford tomorrow for a few days to Drive round areas - unfortunately the schools are on half term and we need to apply by 31/10 ConfusedHmm
