    It's like me and Croydon. I was rather fond and defensive of the place when I grew up there. It's now a cesspit.
    It is still an outstanding school in every respect. And it still attracts kids from all over North London and over 3000 applicants a year. It isnt quite as good as when I was there, for obvious reasons

    I dont know much about the others these days.

    It's safer for kids in the snow. when you are a kid and fall over you get back up.
    as I get older it takes longer to get up.

    How the fúck is a kid in Muswell Hill or Highgate in the catchment area for a school

    in Enfield? There are schools less than half-a-mile away from us which we've been told there's no point applying to as we don't live close enough.

    Ah.... never liked that part. As a rule I never went closer than Winchmore Hill if I could help it.

    I think school's can decide their own catchment area- this one certainly can. They take pupils from every N postcode and most E postcodes.

    Oh, and you have to pass the entrance exam and be good at maths, cricket or music (preferably all three).

    Oh, no. It happens there all the time.

    According to my sons anyway :dubious:
