Hello
This is my first query as I am desperate to get advice for two boys aged 13 and 14. I am living abroad and move to Uk in the next six months. We are not sure where and can settle either in London or close to it. My first priority is the children's education and would definitely prefer top state schools or grammar schools like everyone else. How do I find out where they would stand the best chance admissions so we can move to that area?
I have been considering Bexley, Sutton, Kent, Watford and Buckinghamshire. I understand that they will have major challenges regarding in year vacancies and getting through tests styles that they never have seen not to mention the need for sibling link. How do I start as i am not physically here and will not be considered before we have a home in the area. How do I recce and how do I find potential vacancies so that at least we choose an area where there is some hope? I am so confused! all your help will be so appreciated.
