Anyone Know Lewes and Hove

[mojomojo1]

Hi there, I'm moving to the Lewes/Hove area in 18 months and wondered if anyone could advise me on a couple of school's I'm looking at. Does anyone know The Priory in Lewes or Dorothy Stringer in Hove. Is it hard to obtain a place ? I can move anywhere. I have 4 children so it's a massive job of finding an Elementary School, Secondary and 6th Form ! Phew ! Any advice would be really helpful however small. Thanks a million !

Hi,
Can't help much with Lewes, but can help with Hove.
Dorothy Stringer is not in Hove, it's in Brighton.
Hove is a dual school catchment area, the two schools are Hove Park and Blatchington Mill. You can express a preference but if oversubscribed allocation is via lottery.
Dorothy Stringer is in a similar dual school catchment area in Brighton, the other school in that catchment area is Varndean.
All the mentioned schools are as far as I know over subscribed so getting a space in year may be difficult.
Here is a link to relevant page on council's website:
