Hi Jerry

It's a shame that both your son and daughter can't go to the same school (our two daughters attended different schools for a while and the logistics were complicated!- Now they are both very happy at Bowes) Having a sibling already attending a school is one of the criteria for allocating a place and has priority over distance from the school. You might consider an appeal?

Having said that I have heard very good things from parents of our daughters' contemporaries at Bounds Green - the latest Ofsted report is from a couple of years ago and the head has since led the merger of infants and juniors into a well respected school.

It's a difficult to make the right choice as a parent - but I do think we have some exceptional schools in the area, good luck!

Richard

PS On a separate note it would be great to hear about the Haringey Community Workshops - do you think you might write a blog post about it?
