You need to be very realistic about schools in terms of locations and distance. If you are nearest to Kilmorie or Kelvin Grove then the chances are that that is where you will end up. Catchment area for Fairlawn, Stillness etc are very small. Our son started at Kilmorie this year and he and we love it. Teachers are lovely and Liz Stone is doing a great job. The school is big but reception area is seperate but they are allowed to use the big playground if they want and most of them do as they seem very unphased by it! We also saw Dalmain and that seemed lovely but we went with Kilmorie because the breakfast club and after school club were onsite.
