The 30 Best Private school in Reading

“Lovely school, helpful staff, lots of diversity, and most importantly, all the kids are always smiling and proud of belonging to Micklands :-)”

“Proud Asian studying rlly hard. Fantastic and perfect environment for overseas student! Great school! Fantastic sporting facilities as well!!”

“Has a swimming pool, sports hall (badminton/ basket ball) and a studio for things like dance lessons etc. It's got decent amount of parking too. Cost wise, it's a bit above the average. But given the kind of facilities available, I dont mind.”

“Deenway Montessori School had been life changing for my children and myself as a mother. We moved here to Reading from Singapore so our children can attend this amazing school. My 3 kids are thriving in every area and are balanced well behaved,caring cgildren and are doing amazingly academically too. We love the community that comes with the school and the Headteacher is doing an outstanding job at providing the children with a balanced education. Would recommend to anyone intrested in investing into their whole child and being part of a vision for many generations to come. May God bless this school.”

“My daughter attended Leighton Park From Year 8 to Year 11. She had an absolutely fantastic experience, and they gave her the most fantastic support with her dyslexia. She came as a young person with incredibly low self esteem due to her additional needs but left with enormous confidence, pride and 7 level 9 GCSEs, 2 level 8s an A* and a distinction* in a BTEC. She is now studying 4 A levels at college and is on a program to apply for Oxbridge and is seriously considering a career in politics. None of this would have been possible without the care and attention She received at LP. Their Individual Learning Centre where help is given to students with specific learning difficulties is top notch. Even more important than the qualifications is the sense of community and responsibility that my daughter learnt whilst there. All of the teachers genuinely care. We were so grateful when Covid hit, with how swiftly they put in to action on the line learning . She was Year 10 and taught every day. The pastoral care shines at this place. If you are considering Leighton Park for your son or daughter, I cannot recommend it highly enough.”

“Both my children attend Sherfield School, they’re having a brilliant experience there. Both enjoying the academic and sports side that the school offers. Would highly recommend the school - both the children and us, have made many friends there.”

“I would go there and I live no where near.”

“My daughter is currently in year 1 at Grantham farm and has been there for 3 years. It is a small school with incredibly supportive staff who listen to parents and take comments on board. Education is tailored to each individual while keeping the overall Academic level very high. Children are encouraged rather than pushed and because of this remain very confident and happy, while continually achieving great results. The school continues to provide a strong sports program including tennis, yoga and general sports. Music and French are also part of the curriculum. The school has access to a lovely outdoor space and spend a good amount of time outdoors learning from nature. Overall I am very happy with the school and more importantly my daughter runs into school excited every morning.”

“A great school run by the most caring people.”

“Amazing school - my daughter has been here since she was 2, and is now about to go into year 3. She loves every second.”

“Today, with my business Immersive Theatres, I delivered a 5m digital planetarium experience to 170 Nursery to Year 4 pupils at Our Lady's Preparatory School. I was warmly welcomed by the staff and found the hall prepared just as I had requested. The day was well organised with all groups arriving on time. The excited but well-behaved students enjoyed a rich selection of content: peering up at the planetarium night sky; visiting the International Space Station; handling a famous meteorite and learning about the Solar System, the various types of stars and a future colonised Moon. Thank you Our Lady's Prep School for a very pleasant visit.”

“Our son has attended LVS ascot for 5 years, it was and still is the best choice we made to date. We live in an area with wonderful schools, and when we visited them all those years ago, we were deflated with those local schools, we wanted to look at LVS but logistically from our House it was not going to be easy. But we did visit, and within two minutes we all fell in love with LVS, you know that feeling when you just know it feels right! And 5 years on and not one day have we ever regretted that choice. LVS is full of real people, support to pupils and parents. While achieving fantastic grades, but with happy well balanced students. The mixture of pupils from all different backgrounds, whether they are day students or boarders it’s bonded in an unique way. Our son has achieved so much at LVS in all areas of his life. The staff are open and welcome, and it’s so obvious the students come first. After our first year I approach the school to ask if they would consider doing an extra bus route to our area, which they agreed, so not alone did we have a wonderful school, they helped us as parents out too. To achieve great results in exams, first you have to give a child confidence to achieve great things! Every time I sit in Presidents’ Day, or I go to a music performance or attend sports day, I take a moment to look around me, to see happy smiling faces, I listen to the laughter of happy people and I give thanks to all his teachers, support staff, dinner ladies, bus drivers, cleaners, office staff and grounds men and women. As without all these wonderful people we wouldn’t have this amazing community of support for our precious children. Thank you LVS Angela Horan-Sibley”
