    Oakwood School

    ★★★★☆ 4
    Closed

    “My six children all went to Oakwood - my eldest went to secondary school in 2002 and my youngest in 2015. They all look back with great affection at their time at the school and gratitude for the fantastic education, spiritual development and opportunities they had to develop their enjoyment and talents in music, drama, verse-speaking, sport. They had a lot of fun at Oakwood whilst always being encouraged to give of their best in their work and in their relationships with others. They felt genuinely cared for and valued by all the staff and supported if they struggled with school work or friendship issues or any other worries they had. Mr Candia, the Head, was especially an inspiration to them. As a parent I feel blessed that my children were able to spend those formative years at such a fantastic primary school.”

    Mmi Pre School

    ★★★☆☆ 3.8
    Closed

    “Both my children have attended MMI and I cannot recommend this nursery more highly. My son joined at 2 when we moved to the area and stayed until he started in reception. He can be a little anxious in new settings but in no time, MMI became like a second home for him and he couldn’t wait to go every day. The Montessori setting meant that he was able to explore what interested him most, and he developed real interests and passions that have stayed with him into school. He also formed some very strong friendships that have lasted years after leaving, despite some of them going to different schools. My daughter started at 9 months old and will again stay until she starts school next year. At the gates, I barely get a kiss goodbye as she runs in to see her friends, (again she has a very close knit group that she sees socially as well) and she comes home each day with stories of the games she’s played and conversations she’s had. She is a much more fiery character than my son (hey there second child!), and can be quite stubborn and set in her ways, but all the staff have gone out of their way to try and accommodate her, especially when it comes to her fussy eating! She also had a severe dairy allergy when she started, and all the team were extremely cooperative in making sure that her needs were met to avoid flare ups, or manage them when they did. Across both my children I have seen that the staff care hugely about the children’s development, education and their sense of belonging. Mine have always felt incredibly safe there and MMI is clearly a place of fun and excitement for them. When my son first started, it was mid-Covid, and perhaps there was a little staff turnover - as all businesses had, but on the whole, many of the staff have been there for years and there is a lot of continuity for the children. They still come to say hello to my son when he’s at the gates picking my daughter up, and sometimes take him inside to find her, which he loves. Lastly, I also feel that MMI has a very fair sickness policy, much less harsh than I’ve seen at other nurseries, which means for working parents our lives aren’t too easily derailed, every time a new bug is picked up! I am so happy that I found MMI when I did, I can see that my children have both flourished there, and I’m extremely thankful to Aleks, who manages the nursery, and her wonderful team for all that they do to create such a warm and fostering environment.”

    Shirley High School

    ★★★☆☆ 2.9
    Closed

    “My daughter started the school in January. She tells me how happy she is there in comparison to her old school. Her tutor is lovely and has really helped her feel at home. The parent app they use keeps you well informed, showing me her attendance, reports and achievements as she gets them which I think is great. My daughter likes the teachers and feels that she is learning well from them.”
