Critical thinking in London

“I was invited to College Green Nursery last Thursday as a visiting author/illustrator to share my children's books and storytelling with the children and was very impressed by the warm reception of very friendly staff led by the Headteacher and particularly by Nawal Filali Naji the facilitator of my visit. I was most impressed by just how settled and happy the new intake of 4 year olds were, and their enthusiasm for participation and learning. It is likely down to what I think I detect as the Nursery's environment of structured pastoral care and love.”

“I go Bow secondary school now, I'm in yr 8 and I just wanted to say how amazing the school is.The teachers and staff are REALY kind and I'm super glad that was able to be part of their wonderful community”

“Brilliant teachers who really want to make a difference.. Endless opportunities. V exciting and happy place. I moved my second child there because of the way Forest benefitted my first child, academically. The school has made a lot of advances in the years we have been attending. Unlike many schools near us Forest works with each child to be the best they can be, rather than kick out the kids that don't get straight A's (and don't have home tutoring!) .”

“best school ever i used to go here”

“Our son has been going to this nursery since August 24 (started at 1yo) and we are very satisfied with the quality of care they provide. Great communication and all the nursery teachers are great. Our son seems to be having fun and is happy going to nursery every day”

“I completed my work experience at Alphabet House Nursery School, Waterside Park, and had an amazing time working with the wonderful staff team and children. The children are full of happiness, great at interacting, and little explorers who are always curious and eager to learn. The nursery provides a rich and stimulating environment where children have many opportunities to explore, investigate, and solve problems independently. They regularly visit Thames Barrier Park, where they enjoy learning about nature and exploring the space around them. I highly recommend this nursery to all parents in the area. It’s a nurturing and supportive environment where children are encouraged to meet their developmental milestones through hands-on learning and real-life experiences. Activities like cooking, science experiments, and celebrating cultural diversity help broaden their understanding of the world. The manager, Humairah, is incredibly supportive, friendly, and dedicated to providing high-quality childcare. One of the highlights of this nursery is the “Stay and Play” sessions, which are fantastic opportunities for parents to spend quality time with their children and take part in creative and engaging activities. Overall, Alphabet House Nursery School is a truly special place for children to grow, learn, and thrive.”

“We have three lower school children attending the school and have been very impressed with how they were able to help each of them transition in a new country and to help them progress in their learning.”

“Fantastic school, my kids love their teachers. Headteacher knows every child by name and greets them in front of school gate in the mornings. Keep up the great job!”

“Fantastic school that mixes the best aspects of the French and Anglo-saxon academic systems. Strives for academic excellence while nurturing non-academic talents and creativity in the students. Teachers are excellent and students come out truly bilingual.”

“This is a lovely school with lovely students and teachers! It is most likely recommend for you to send your children to this heaven since every other child thinks school is hell! Their in luck cause this school is more like heaven and they also serve delicious and healthy food!”

“At Brit College I appreciate its supportive learning environment and dedicated staff. As a student I was delighted by the extensive support services offered, including academic assistance, career advice, and personal support for issues such as mental heath and financial difficulties​​. The college have flexible learning opportunities, particularly beneficial for mature learners like me and for those without traditional academic backgrounds as well. The emphasis on practical learning and employability skills, alongside modern facilities and a high-qualified teaching staff, helped me a lot during studies period​.”

“I highly recommend this nursery. My son, Sayyid, has been attending for three and a half years, and he feels safe and happy there. Every day, he’s excited to go, and he loves everyone who cares for him. The staff are always smiling, friendly, and make him feel like it’s a second home. As a mother, seeing him so happy gives me confidence and peace of mind. Sayyid started attending the nursery as a baby, and it’s been amazing to watch him grow and learn so much over the years. A special thanks to Suri, the nursery manager, who has carefully selected such a wonderful team. She is always welcoming, approachable, and available, and I truly believe the nursery wouldn’t be the same without her.”

“The National Circus Centre for Arts absolutely blew us away with their incredible performance at our event! Their artistry and skill were simply breathtaking. The performers were incredibly talented and engaged the audience from start to finish. The show added a touch of magic and excitement that elevated our event to a whole new level. We can't thank them enough!”

“FountKids Shoreditch has been a godsent for us for flexible ad-hoc childcare, either last minute or planned ahead. But there isn't a catch! You still get the quality, care for children and variety of stimulus you would find at any great nursery. And all great value for money considering the area. My 16 month old never cries when I leave him there compared to his other childcare arrangements - he absolutely loves it! I only wish it could be open on weekends ;)”

“Best Kindergarten in London Met and exceeded expectations especially engagement with children, activities, trips and safety. Also wonderful theatre and music productions. Brilliant supportive staff.”

“Kish is my daughter’s second home and she is looking forward to going in every day. The kids have space to run around, roll in mud and explore the way kids should. As a picky parent I can comfortably say that Kish provides the highest standard of care, teaches important values and guides the children to become the most wonderful humans every child has the potential to be.”

“My daughter started in this nursery when she was 12 months old in the baby room, and since then she developed in such a nice Way! She learned a lot of staff and every week she is coming with something new. The staff is really nice and supportive with the kids . My one is really enjoying the nursery! Thank you the amazing team that you are allowing my baby girl to Shine like a Little star every day!”

“Our son had a wonderful time at the kindergarten in Bellingham Green. He settled in very quickly and came home happy and inspired every day. The nursery has a very large indoor and outdoor space plus its own forest garden. The whole team is very professional and caring. Parents receive weekly updates including pictures and videos. As we‘re moving country we will truly miss the kindergarten!”

“Absolutely BRILLIANT pre school. The staff are so friendly and hands on. The manager goes above and beyond, recognising a childs potential, no matter what their ability and nurturing it. They regularly update on your child's progress and work with you to bring them on. I would have no hesitation in recommending this excellent nursery”

“We have been part of the Fountain family for 5 years. It’s a very nurturing and loving environment- the teachers are excellent & can see how much they care about each child. With the recent challenges faced due to Covid-19, the nursery has responded extremely well in getting back up and running with the safety measures put in place. We feel reassured with the checks and practices implemented. Well done Fountain team!”

“Aunties Jackie and Alison and all the other wonderful Aunties work so hard to give the children such creative, fun and varied activities everyday. My daughter absolutely loved her time at Stanmore Baptist and we thank all of the Aunties for making her nursery years filled with such happiness, wonderful friendships and inspiration. Thanks you x”

“Sudbrook is a lovely school, the children are loved and taught and come out with a good background. There is a great mix of physical and mental work coupled with healthy amounts of play. Honestly we could have done with having longer hours but if that's the worst problem then they are doing very very well. Highly recommended for your little ones. Not recommended as a sixth form college :) ......................”

“We’ve had the best experience at The White House. My son, who is now at a Senior school choosing GCSES, achieved excellent offers thanks to the support of his amazing teachers and the school. My daughter, in her final years, is thriving academically, excelling in sports, and has built strong relationships with peers. The school is like a community and We’re grateful for everything this school has provided and highly recommend it. Be sad to when my daughter’s time comes to an end but all good things …”

“The staff are friendly and really go that extra mile with the children . My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her work experience and plenty of activities for the nursery children to experience. Thank you for giving my daughter this wonderful opportunity.”

“My grandson attends this beautiful nursery, very friendly and personal to each child's needs. Staff are lovely and very caring. Management are great and always ready to support your children's needs/requirements. My grandson arrives happy and never wants to leave, he's goes on lots of trips and walks but his favourite part is the soft play area.”
