Innovative teaching in Welling

“I go to dormers wells infant school”

“Charlie is an absolute star! We are a care home and all the residents love their workouts with Charlie! Cant recommend The Blair Academy enough.”

“Great same day service for our Bosch washing machine. Polite and honest, would definitely recommend as was cheaper than all the other quotes I had! Couldn’t recommend more, saved me so much hassle with the engineer’s honest approach”

“My daughter is in her second year of ballet classes at the school Tiptoes & Tappers. She saw her favourite character from the film dancing and decided that she wanted to do ballet too. During this time she has become more confident on stage. She is never shy about dancing at children's birthday parties. It's fun. What she likes most is the attentive teachers and the staff. She socialises with many of the girls outside of class. As a mum I love that my daughter continues to rush to class every Saturday despite it being a weekend and morning. That her curiosity is not killed in her by the rigid demands that are inherent in ballet. But in doing so, she feels her body and dances better and better. I highly recommend the school if you want your child to develop harmoniously in dance, while she/he will have the experience of the big stage, which is so important for an artist and the support of professionals and friendly team.”

“Great school, great lunch choices, great teachers, unsure of the politics however.”

“I have been in Deansfiald since Nursary & now im in year 6. There are 2 big words that i have to say about this School. Its a GAME CHANGER!”

“Best nursery in this area good teachers and lots of space for kid to play”

“Great school. My son started there in OG (Year 6) last September and loves it. Kids are bright, parents are friendly and the teaching seems excellent. Doesn't matter what you are into (music, sport etc.) they seem to cater for it. Although it's a private school, it's a lot less snobby than some state schools - especially some of the Grammar schools.”

“Kindred Nursery has consistently exceeded my expectations in every way. My daughter is having an exceptional experience there. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and always receptive and supportive with all enquiries. She looks forward to going each morning, and I've noticed significant improvements in her education. I highly recommend Kindred Nursery for its excellent environment and dedicated team.”

“Incredible school, highest level of teaching, fulfilling community”

“The facilities at the school are amazing, new playground and refurbished nursery. My child loves the school!”

“Amazing staff and nice classes. They also serve Halal food in the cafeteria”

“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”

“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!”

“This was my old school 1964 - 1971 the boys play ground was on the left at the end of the long drive and girls and juniors to the left my wost teachers were from class 7 -9 but at class 10 Mr Williams was my best teacher this school had its mini swimming pool to the rear of the dinning area in the boys playground and still had bomb shelters Beside the play ground happy memories”

““Inspiring our children and community to be the very best that they can be!” As a Trustee I feel really privileged and proud to be involved in this journey. “Inclusive” is not only our name but core to everything we do to help our community fulfil the hopes and dreams of our children. Every day our 3 Watford primary schools – Beechfield, Cherry Tree and Laurance Haines work closely together to create great opportunities which inspire our pupils to learn and develop skills to adapt and succeed in our ever changing world. Each school is very much a part of the local community with its own distinct characteristics and curriculum –we don’t believe that one size fits all but a nurturing philosophy underlines everything we do. As part of a group of schools we provide opportunities for our children to participate and share in exciting projects across the schools – whether sporting, outdoors or creative - for example our art display in Watford Museum or the more recent song written and performed to celebrate and thank Covid-19 key workers. Supporting our people to succeed is a core belief and strength – we are lucky to include former pupils among our teaching staff! Working together enables the sharing and development of best practice whilst addressing workload too. Good career progression is available across the Trust schools. “if you want to go fast, go alone.

“I moved my daughter from a different setting to join Glenangels three years ago and have not had a single regret since! We aspired for a better, all rounded setting offering outdoor play and lots of stimulation and above all fun, which is everything that Glenangels is! I now also have my younger son there and they both come home bursting with positive energy, and big smiles on their faces every single day. Glenangels is a family run business and you truly feel the family vibe. It is like our children's second home, and we are able to get on with our working day without a single moment of angst or worry. Moreover, the staff there are incredible; not only are they hard working but they also have such a genuine love and care for all the children there.”

“Left the school 6 years ago and am now going into my 2nd year of university. Orley Farm was a great experience. Brilliant facilities, staff and I thoroughly enjoyed my 9 years at the school. Orley Farm’s holistic education and excellence in all areas of school life is what makes it stands out from the rest.”

“We took our child for a year and it was such great place for learning.”

“Really fun just joined and am absolutely loving it. There are so many clubs and co-curricular clubs there are too many to count. Love it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five stars”

“My grand children go to this school. It is a wonderful environment for learning and they are both doing well.”

“Lovely little school.My daughter loves it here”

“Taught me everything I know now and a safe environment for children. This place also has a outside gym for kids,a trim trail,a shed with hula hoops and other safe but fun equipment. Shawley also has a big playground and field. It has years from reception to year 6. There is a hall where you have assembly and food. The food is really good and nutritious. You have to pay for food but it is cheap. Thanks for reading”
