Hello,
We are currently in the US and are likely to return to UK this summer. We will be house and job hunting once we are back and I am very worried about my boys education. My older son 5+ (August 2007) goes to Kindy or Reception here but according to the cutoff in UK he should have been in Year1 by now. Does that mean my son will be pushed to start Year2 when we return?
We would like to ideally settle down in Ickenham, Croxley Green, Rickmansworth as we both will be commuting to the city. Plus schools are great there, which is a number 1 for me. Our max budget is 450K. Is it true that all schools are over subscribed there and my boys will end up being pushed into any school in the area which has a vacancy? (forgot to mention my younger son Sep 2008 born will be starting Reception this year)
Would you suggest any other good neighbourhoods with good schools (not over subscribed ) and easy commute to the city? I don't think we can afford private education on top of the mortgage.
Please help!!
Many Thanks!!
