Nurturing students in Harrow

“My child has no complaints about the school and enjoys it very much! Highly recommended”

“Very good school. Great infrastructure.”

“I have been a student at DiscoG Coding Academy for 8 years, and it has been such an incredible journey. The atmosphere is truly homely, making it a place where you not only learn, but also feel genuinely supported. Thanks to Gerard's expertise and guidance, I achieved a perfect 70/70 in my Computer Science A-level coursework, which contributed to 20% of my overall grade. Gerard's many years of experience shine through in his teaching, making even the most complex of concepts understandable. Kat adds a vibrant energy to the classes, making each session exciting and engaging. What sets DiscoG apart is that it's more than just a place to learn how to code -- it's a true mentorship experience. Gerard and Kat have guided me not only in coding but also in life skills, by encouraging me to explore the parallels between Classics and Computer Science, for instance. Their dedication to their students' growth is unparalleled, and I cannot recommend DGCA enough. If you're looking for a place that nurtures both your coding skills and personal development, DGCA is the place to be. I write this review in sadness at the realisation that weekly classes for me have ended as I now move onto university, but I am reminded of the incredible students at DGCA, whose passion and creativity make me hopeful for the future of coding. I’m excited to see the next generation of coders and pioneers thrive, and I look forward to visiting often and contributing to this ever-growing community.”

“The Nursery is very well equipped and clean. The Head Teacher and staff are excellent. Very caring and understanding each child’s needs. Had lots of fun on Grandparents Day. Would recommend it to friends and family.”

“It take huge amount of effort and time to put a show like this together. I. as a parent am very grateful of the opportunity to see our daughter perform on stage. Playing with professional musicans and having a chance to showcase her ability play the volin. Thank you so much.”

“Friendly staff. Excellent environment for students to reach their full potential.”

“It's sensible fun and nice teachers”

“Shaheena is very professional and has a lovely nursery setup with a lot of resources she has a vast knowledge in all aspects of early years and sen.”

“went there as a child 86-92 loved it.. great school great area, lovely old building.”

“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 are so far extremely pleased with the school. All the staff we came across have been very dedicated and professional; parents and kids are friendly and polite. The school has undergone complete refurbishment and the new buildings are great! Very spacious playground with good equipment and two entrances (one is close to West Harrow Station, which is great for commuting).”

“My daughter has been at apple tree for 8 months now and every morning she gets so excited to come to the nursery. I am very satisfied with the practitioners and the overall environment. Thank you for providing her a safe place to learn and grow.”

“My daughter benefited greatly from attending . She received personalised attention and her confidence was greatly improved as a result . Areas of concern were highlighted on a regular basis and the tutors worked closely with me to make sure she got the best out of the course . I would highly recommend not only for independent school entry but also for a strong academic foundation .”

“My daughter has been going there for 2 years now, this September will start her 3rd year. All of her friends also go there so they get to see each other on the weekend too, She loves every minute of it. It makes me happy to see that her posture is perfect and she stays flexible. This year she will go to a class above so the lessons will be tiny bit more tougher than before. We both are looking forward to it.”

“At the last Ofsted Inspection, the school was found to be outstanding in all areas. The Ofsted report says: "Behaviour is outstanding. Pupils are completely involved in their learning and enjoy being at school. They feel very safe and feel well looked after. They are always polite and respectful of each other."”

“Amazing school with fantastic staff who want the best for the children.. Thank you camrose !!!”

“Fantastic leadership group and a lovely setting for children to learn.”

“As of writing this review, I'm a Year 12 student who's been in the school for almost six years, and I'm taking A-Levels in Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Computer Science and French. Thus, I feel I'm more experienced than most other reviewers to talk about the school. Firstly, let me say that this is no grammar or private school. Not everyone's parents have hundreds of thousands of pounds to send their children, and not everyone finds irrational joy in studying eight hours a day every day after school. Most people are just your average person, but for me, that's perfect. You'll get to know most of the people in your year, and perhaps in the years above and below you, too. Friendship groups form quickly and easily, and many are happy to accept other students. In the older years (Year 10 onwards), people start to socialise with others outside their friendship group, and I enjoy the social scene here. In my case, being able to talk to extremely talented people is an opportunity I wouldn't exchange for anything: I've grown attached to my friends as though they were family. And, while not everyone here is a four A*-type student, we certainly get those types: every year, we have students who get all A*s and go off to Oxford or Cambridge. If you aspire to be one of those students, don't write off Claremont just because you think you'll do better by going to another school! The teachers are also incredibly polite, for the most part. (Of course, there are teachers who the younger students would consider strict, but as you grow older, you'll see that it's just the different teaching personalities they adopt, and in reality, they aren't really that strict after all—your class were just really annoying!) They devote plenty of time and effort into ensuring every student succeeds academically and as a person. Their lessons are usually very well-planned, but their devotion to their students truly shines when one of them asks for help or discusses a topic with a teacher that they're both passionate about. This is especially helpful in the Sixth Form, where you'll often find yourself wanting to stimulate your own interest in the subject! Every week, we also hold competitions and clubs for all lower years, from sports to chess; we also have a few more unorthodox ones such as a cybersecurity/hacking club. The extracurricular scene is a bit lacking for the Sixth Form, though, but since you're allowed to leave when you don't have lessons, you probably won't need it. We have an active student body which includes a Prefect Team and a Student Voice, both of which allow students to suggest changes to improve the school. And while Claremont is by no means perfect, I thoroughly enjoy my time here, and I could not imagine having a better experience at any other school.”

“Its perfect. Ofsted will tell you the same”

“Our daughter has been going here for the last 4 years. It is wonderful to see her grow into a smart and confident girl. All the staff has been very helpful and want the children to prosper. Thank you Elmgrove family.”

“Amazing school! Had lots of memories there I will never forget xx”

“I go to this school it is so fun the whole KS2 got to try the new VR Headset!”

“Mr.Patadia is the best teacher ever!!!!!!! (this is jai) i am sooooo sad dat im leaving this year”
