Situation:

The thriving town of Margate is one of England’s most quintessential seaside towns, with its long, sandy beaches and traditional seaside shops and arcades. However, there is also a new and vibrant atmosphere in Margate, with the world-renowned Turner Contemporary art gallery (opened in 2011) and the regeneration of the Old Town, with its vast array of boutique shops and international cafes and restaurants. The town is also served by a variety of High Street stores, whilst the recently developed Westwood Cross shopping centre offers a superb array of shopping and recreational amenities. Margate has much to see and do, including three theatres, the Winter Gardens, The Theatre Royal (the second oldest theatre in the country) and the Tom Thumb Theatre (one of the smallest theatres in the world).

The Isle of Thanet offers a wide selection of schools, including 41 primary schools and 13 secondary schools (including both state grammar schools and several well regarded independent schools) and an outstanding Forest Kindergarten. Thanet enjoys excellent road links with a dual carriageway to Dover (20 miles) and Folkestone (30 miles) which have ferry and Eurotunnel connections to the continent. Furthermore, the Thanet Way and M2 provide access to Canterbury (13 miles), Faversham and Central London (75 miles). Margate station offer a regular service to London Bridge, Victoria, Cannon Street, Blackfriars and Charing Cross along with the three high-speed links to St Pancras.
