We are thinking of moving to Lewes and would like to know:
Which are the best nursery schools and primary schools?
Also, which is the nicest area to live in?

How interesting. We are from the Midlands, have an offer of work in the area, and very small children to consider. Is there a xenophobic aspect to this forum? If so, I'm sorry to have intruded with my unwelcome questions and wish you all the very best ...

Don't know about nursery but as far as primary schools go malling, wallands, southover are not bad. Depends on which part of town you intend to live. Pretty much all of lewes is a nice place to live. Again depends on your budget/aims. IE do you have 2 cars, do you need to be near the bus routes etc...

If you can afford it, you should send your kids to Lewes New School, primary education as it should be, kids get to learn to enjoy learning and exploring rather than just being force fed information to get them through SATS to make up the figures.

AVOID LEWES... The housing is VERY over priced, it floods, is over crowded and there's nowhere to park unless you pay a Kings Ransom.
Worse still... There's a jolly little green grocers at the foot of Cliffe Bridge who puts cheap table and chairs in the road so that posers can sip tea and simultaneously get run over.
SEAFORD has MUCH better housing, parking and people.

"SEAFORD" - I like the sound of the word.
It means people can live free, talk free, go or come, buy or sell, be drunk or sober, however they choose.
Some words give you a feeling. Seaford is one of those words that makes me tight in the throat - the same tightness a man gets when his baby takes her first step or his son shaves or makes his first sound like a man.
Some words can give you a feeling that makes your heart warm.
Seaford is one of those words.

Seaford... My kinda town... where you can live free... park free...
Howz the Ol' parking in Lewes now-a-days?
Not so good from what I've read in the local paper!
lol
REVEREND... NOPE! I won't stop harping on about Bills. If a resident left their car where he leaves his tables/chairs it would be towed away.
Also if all traders exceeded the boundaries of their propereties like he does Lewes would look even more like a Penny Bazaar.

Hey Phil, the reason there is so much space and free parking in Seaford is because nobody wants to live or go there.(except those waiting for god of course)

It's all pretty nice in Lewes. We moved to the Pells area last year and really love it - close to the town. The New School in the Pells very good nursery - although it is an independent school for primary.

If no, then no no no no no. No!
There aren`t really ANY non-nice areas in Lewes.
The schools you want are by the De Montford Estate.
