Thank you. Sat Siri Akaal ji I don't know the area that well (I'm from south of London), but I have heard family friends who are Sikh, live either in Stevenage, or in Hitchin which is near. @dallysingh101 @jkvlondon are from London. Maybe @MisterrSingh and @Ranjeet01 are also from London and would know more. It looks like there are three Gurdwaras in Hitchin I think Luton is to be avoided, and it's also a lot further away.. Hatfield and Welyn Garden City I think should also be avoided. The government inspects all schools every few years and does a report which might help get idea of what the schools are like (https://reports.ofsted.gov.uk/) , and you could look at school websites to get an idea if there are photos showing what type of children attend the school. There's a website in the UK called Mumsnet, and you can get ideas from their forums https://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/property/3991871-HITCHIN-surrounding-villages-is-it-worth-moving-to-if-so-why It might be worth contacting the local Gurdware to see if anyone local from Stevenage or Hitchin can guide you further about schools and housing. It's very important you also factor your daily commuting - you should try to minimise the time you have to spend travelling which might be dependent on the rush hour traffic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. Sat Sri Akaal ji, Welcome to UK! Here is another website that might be useful in deciding schools. https://www.locrating.com/school_catchment_areas.aspx?lat=51.7492956&lng=-0.3422526 St Albans might be suitable. I used to visit friends there many years ago and it was a very nice area. It seems to have many good schools. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
