We are planning on moving to Brighton & Hove. We moved to northern Spain over four years ago but have found ourselves missng England! We have very good friends in Brighton and have always enjoyed visiting. It seems like a good family-friendly place, I can´t think of anywhere in England I´d rather live.
I´ve been through a few old threads on here. It seems that finding a place at a state school is almost impossible! We have two boys, they will be aged 5 & 7, so we´re looking at infants & junior schools. I like the sound of Stanford infants & junior, also Balfour. For those of you who live in the area, if you had to choose your top three schools, which ones would you choose?
The areas I´ve been looking at (online) are Seven Dials, Fiveways, Preston Park & Hove (specifically Poets Corner). We will be visiting next month so at last we can get a real feel for these areas. Any thoughts on these areas? Would you say that Brighton is a good place for families?
Thanks in advance!
