Hello 👋


Just curious if anyone here knows what other Secondary Schools are good in this area?

We are moving from overseas and struggling to find accommodation in the exact catchment for The Charter School. Does anyone have ideas on other great Secondary Schools in the wider area ? 😁😁


Thankyou!!

Liv

There are many good secondary schools in the area. The two Charters are just two schools and they certainly have their weaknesses! If you have a girl, Harris Girls is very much on the way up and I think they have a wonderful, holistic approach. Harris Boys has got a very good reputation. Further afield, St. Thomas the Apostle is an outstanding school although boys only... Deptford Green has a great deal of promise as well.

Are you looking at secondary schools for future admission starting at year 7 (age 11), or to join an existing year group?

If the latter, you could move next door to your preferred school and still not get a place, as you will be dependent on someone leaving the school to get a place if that school is at its maximum capacity.

Last year I helped a friend try to find a school place for a year 8 girl and none of the Southwark schools could help. She ended up at Haberdashers - a much sought-after Lewisham school that just happened to have an in year vacancy.

If you are looking at Year 10, I would reckon Kingsdale would be a good bet as quite a large number of students leave to join the Brit School, which only starts at age 14.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
