Re: Wandsworth Primary Schools - recommendations/

Huge, huge vote for Swaffield. It's such a happy environment - we were blown away on an open day and have been really pleased with our choice.

Beatrix Potter or Swaffield?

I was wondering if anyone has considered both Beatrix Potter and Swaffield and could share what made them choose one over the other. I'm sure both are great - we've seen both and are torn!
