Leigh on sea - schools

I've got a couple of threads going at the moment as we are trying to narrow down on where to rent in South Essex. Leigh on Sea is one of them.

I would appreciate your thoughts on Leigh Infant School and Chalkwell Hall Infant School as my little one is due to start school next year. They both have outstanding ofsteds but its always better to hear from someone who's actually experienced things on the ground.

Many thanks.

    Both very good, both oversubscribed.... Leigh, Chalkwell and Westleigh are the three most "desirable" schools in Leigh on Sea. All feeder schools to the local (very good) grammars. Blenheim and Darlinghurst are both improving but aren't favoured by locals.

    Check out the Southend council website for more info on admissions and catchment areas.

    It's a lovely area :)
