Talent development in Harrow

“Olivia is absolutely delighted with the classes and speaks very highly of her teachers. She enjoys the energy and the fun factor but also willingly practises at home.”

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

“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.”

“My kids loved the WCS summer camp at Orley Farm! It was their first time going to summer camp and they loved it! Had a few tears on the last day of camp. All staff members were lovely and engaging. Well done everyone! We’ll definitely be back next summer!”

“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.”

“Nice stuff,good place,good activities,also clean”

“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.”

“The best Nursery in Harrow on the hill. - well structured and organised learning approach. - well experienced and knowledgeable teachers. - Polite and very kind staff. - routine reviews and parent meetings to discuss child’s area of growth and development. My Son finished his session this year. Me and my wife we both are extremely happy and satisfied with the service.”

“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 .”

“I have attended jigsaw since the age of 3, I am now 16 and am still apart of the Jigsaw Harrow family.Through out my years at Jigsaw I have been able to develop life skills like public speaking and confidence in performing in front of an audience. Jigsaw has allowed me to express myself in the form of art and create friends for life. Not to mention the highly experienced and talented teachers that help you along your journey at Jigsaw. So if your looking for a performing arts class Jigsaw is the only way to go.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Very nice school with great teachers and peers alike and a wonderful playground with sufficient parking for parents ts”

“amazing day,so well organised and to see all of those proud parents was so heart warming and the kids put on such a tremendous show. will go again definately”

“I lived here 2022-2023. I can’t fault the landlord (CanadaIsrael) or the amazing Reception, Bar and Maintenance teams onsite. Very nice, comfortable apartments that made the area feel safe. Working AC and I recieved my deposit back in full. Any issues were always rectified swiftly even whilst under pressure from dirty tenants making a mess of communal spaces. I came to leave this review after seeing / laughing at the unfair negative comments made whilst showing my friends my old flat. I’d highly recommend WEM tower.”

“The Appletree team nurtured and moulded our little girl from the age of 1 until she was ready to begin school. From the day she joined we noticed her development going from strength to strength and soon noticed improvements in her vocabulary and motor skills. Our daughter created a bond with the staff which was nurtured as she progressed through baby room into toddler room where the team helped her with her independence. The Appletree setting has a real homely feel whilst maintaining a professional approach which gave my wife and I reassurance in knowing our little girl was safe and well cared for. Thank you to the whole Appletree team for taking such great care of our daughter we know she is the growing into wonderful young lady in no small part thanks to you.”

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

“I am extremely pleased with Stag Lane infant school; my children are always happy to be at school & the overall environment is fantastic. Absolutely wonderful teachers/staff and very structured classes. They have an amazing nursery; with the most hard working staff! The learning begins with the basics at nursery & continues in the years to follow. Totally recommend the infant and nursery school!”

“A lovely school with great teachers.”
