    Edge Grove School

    ★★★★☆ 4.4
    Closed

    “Our daughter (now in year 8) has been at Edge Grove since year 6 having spent all her previous schooling in the French system. We joined the school at a time when the new headmaster, Me Evans, was still putting in place his vision, but we felt that he knew exactly what he was wanting to do, and we completely bought into that vision. We have not been disappointed. The pastoral care has been first rate, particularly helping our daughter in the transition to a British Independent school. From what we have seen, any pastoral issues are dealt with speedily and sensitively. Great emphasis is put on politeness and creating the right environment for learning, whilst enjoying everything that the school has to offer. The education curriculum is innovative, supportive and stretching, and the school is doing a fantastic job of supporting all year 8 pupils in preparation for CE, truly differentiating based on the schools they are applying to and the exams they will be taking. Extra-curriculum activities are great too - the Director of Music is fantastic and the improvement in the quality of all school music activities has been marked, while the head of girls' games is really raising the bar too. Staff go beyond what one might expect and respond rapidly and helpfully to any questions or concerns. The parent community is friendly and welcoming. The school certainly deserves its recent rating of Excellent in all regards from the Independent Schools Inspection. I highly recommend the school to any prospective parent.”

    Little hearts pre-school

    ★★★★★ 5
    Closed

    “Little Hearts Preschool is absolutely outstanding! Within just a few weeks, I noticed a huge positive change in my son’s confidence, happiness, and manners — he genuinely looks forward to going every day. The staff are professional, caring, and go above and beyond to create a warm, supportive environment. Having previously used local childminders, I can honestly say that the level of care, structure, and learning opportunities at Little Hearts are on a completely different standard. The environment is nurturing, stimulating, and well-organised, and the staff are well-mannered, highly trained and genuinely care about each child’s individual needs and progress. I also love that they use the Tapestry app to share updates and photos — it gives parents real peace of mind. The difference compared to childminders settings is remarkable. My only regret is not sending my older son here. The Little Hearts team is simply outstanding, and I’m so grateful for the support, care, and encouragement they have given my child — truly an amazing preschool!”

    Stagecoach Performing Arts Watford

    ★★★★★ 5
    Open

    “Stagecoach Watford has been an excellent place for my girls to showcase their talent. My eldest has additional needs, but that didn't stop Emily and her crew from bringing out the best in her. She wasn't hidden or given unnecessary roles. The team has found a way to include her in a way that she shines the brightest!! I was so sceptical initially to enrol her, but after 2 years now, I wish I had done it sooner!! Stagecoach has helped my daughter communicate and interact better with her peers. Her confidence has improved so much. She loves singing, dancing and acting! There is never a performance that I am not in bits!! (tears of joy!). The mainstream children are so well-behaved and have come to accept my girl. It is so beautiful to see how they all encourage her and give her a gentle nudge to fall in line. I think seeing her perform with the crew at His Majesty's Theatre recently tops it all! She loves going to Stagecoach, and I can not stop thanking Emily, Andrea, and other members of the Stagecoach Watford crew for being so amazing, professional, inclusive, nurturing, and creative. Well done to all of you, and thank you for the excellent work you do with our kids!!!”
