I visited yesterday and was very pleasantly surprised. Lots of good stuff happening. If you've been given Langbourne and it wasn't one of your choices, as we have, I would urge you to visit. Now I feel that I wouldn't hesitate to send my son if it wasn't for the distance we'd have to travel.

I've been surprised how many people have posted recently saying that Langbourne is an impossible distance to travel. My son is at the prep, practically right next to Langbourne, and I know plenty of people who bike there from SE22, admittedly mostly from the forest hill "end" of Se22' but including someone who bikes from Bellenden Road. It's not as bad as you might think, because on a bike you can turn left up Bowen Road off Huntslip Road, rather than going right around(that end of Bowen Road is blocked to cars). Alternatively if you took the P13 to Dulwich College, it's about ten mins walk from the bus stop. I also know people who do that.

I don't know much about Langbourne - although the children always seem very polite when I see them on the way to the train station - but I don't think it should be ruled out on distance alone.
