Hello, our family moved to Lymington from New Zealand last December. It is lovely here and our 9 year old is enjoying the local junior school. We may need to move closer to Bournemouth to be nearer my Dad/partner's job and are looking at the Christchurch/Mudeford/Hengistbury Head areas. We like the look of Twynham Secondary and have heard good things about it and it has good results. What do people know about it or what are your experiences? The catchment area is quite narrow and being in Hengistbury Head may not guarantee our son a place at Twynham as far as I can tell? What is St Peter's Catholic Secondary like? We are not Catholic or church goers however so it may make it hard to get into and may not be the best fit for our son. What is Highcliffe like? We also have preschooler so have been looking at primary schools. I like the look of St Katherine's in Hengistbury Head. Is it easier to get in if you are a church goer? What are Christchurch Junior and The Priory like? Alternatively we may stay around the Lymington area. What is Priestlands like? Thank you for any advice!
