Much needed advice [pls]

Hi everyone, I really need some advice.
So, I'm in year 10 and doing my mocks and I'm going to be moving in about 3 months, so I'll be doing Y11 in another school in another area and it's more of a rural area compared to the one I live in, and I was panicked about the different options and exam boards. After a bit of thinking I've come to terms with the difficulty of change, but what I'm not happy about is the quality of education in the area (based off the reviews I've seen).

So, my current decision is to live in sharing with my mom's friend (her kid goes to the same school in Y7) for a year and proceed to go to the same school. For context, I don't know them much at all.

my question is if you think this is a good choice? Or should I just move with my parents?

Are you going to the new school or no?

No, I'm moving in about 3 months and have decided to do my GCSEs as a private candidate and homeschool myself

If something has had a review like this, that review will be the experience in the past from one person, so their point of view. None of this has any bearing on what your experience in the future will be like or your point of view.
