If you put your address and Dartford grammar school into Google maps you wil find the suggested route by public transport.

I have just put "New Addington" in to get a rough guide and it looks as if it is almost a 2 hour journey, depending on what time school starts.... maybe you should consider moving house?

This company runs buses to the Dartford grammars and there's some information about other options - couldn't at a skim see Croydon/ New Addington but do check.

I do suspect it will be a tough journey though. Are you on waiting lists for higher options? Or is moving a possibility?

Gosh. That's tough. Good luck with the waiting list at Newstead Woods.

I am assuming that you can't drive your daughter to and from DGS. If so, t might be worth ringing the school to see whether there are other pupils travelling from New Addington and if so ,how they get to school. I guess its just possible that there is private bus service that has already been arranged by parents. Alternatively if there are sufficient children starting in Sept that come from your area you might be able to make contact with them via the school with and organise one with them.

Good luck.
