Generally speaking, which schools are better…State schools / Independent Schools / Islamic Schools…???

you can browse by area and see the league tables for good and bad schools.

hope it helps.

mostly they depends on the area where the school is.
private schools are very good upto Harrow School and Eaton at Top place.

public schools are free and are better in low crime areas of london, eg Harrow, Ruislip, Northwood, Pinner, mill hill

worst in high crime area or low income areas hackney, newham, southall, hounslow etc

you can also check where are you planning to live cron profile of the area. www.upmystreet.co.uk it will tell you the crime and schools profile of the area.
