Grade Schools

Hi there!

We are a private tution service that is based in Sutton. We specialise tutoring in core subjects, for children aged 5 and upwards, and are qualified to tutor in all major exams including SAT's and 11+!

If you would like any more info on our services, just message us on here or visit our website www.itsbookworms.co.uk.

We're also on all social media platforms if thats easier for you!

We look forward to hearing from you :)

Mine are too young for this, but we are considering it. My husband is Catholic (although we don't go to church) and we've been meaning to get our children baptised.

Faith schools generally have a better ethos and get much better results than non-faith schools.

My friend has two kids there and she's really happy with the school. A couple years ago they had some problem with the staffing and some kids had several teachers in one year. But other than that I've heard only good reviews.

I imagine you've already made a decision about Langdon school) If you so, do your kids like it there? Or if they didn't go there, what school did you choose? The only thing I know about Langdon in East Ham is that two kids were stabbed there in a fight. This would've been enough to scare ME off.

Answered all questions!

Hi, 

Personally I was really impressed with the school site and with the headteacher - I found her quite inspiring.

I understand that you have to live on one of the 'bird roads' to get in  Don't be put off by the fall from Outstanding to Good. This has been very typical and some Outstanding schools have fallen further. The way that schools are assessed has been changed over recent years so it is truly exceptional to be Outstanding.

From what I heard the best primaries are super-selective. Langley gets amazing reviews as well as Newstead. Hayes or West Wickham also seem to be great, my cousins used to go there. But they are much cheaper than Langley of Newstead.

We may have to move to Islington next year so I am looking into schools in case we do move. Can anyone recommend something? I read good things about Highbury Grove and Highbury Fields schools. Does anyone have kids there? 

We'd love to send our DS to St Mary's. We are practicing RCs and whilst we do attend church regularly we still worry about the strict weekly attendance for 3 years requirement. Would anyone have any advice on whether they think that getting a nursery place there will increase the chances of being offered a place at Reception level? The admissions process states that having a nursery place does not give priority or guarantee a Reception place, but I still wonder whether in practice it would increase our chances and therefore be worth applying for and moving DS from his current nursery if we get offered a place? 

Are there any parents with LOs in Primrose Hill here? Is it a good school? Any info is welcome 

Anyone with daughters in any of these schools? Any info is very much appreciated! 

I read a lot of great reviews about this school, they have 97 places for their students at Oxbridge this year. My son is good academically speaking but I'm not sure he is outstanding. He is 7 though, and I'm pretty sure if he really wants to he can get there. So my question is - is it worth the pain and the money?We do want him in Oxbridge eventually, it is his dream too. But I know there are other good schools that can help him get there as well. Any thoughts are welcome. 

So we are looking into schools in our area and this one is the nearest. Anyone has any insights? 

Is this a good place? My sister was offered a place there and we are looking for any inside info

Does anyone here have children attending this school? My sister was offered a place there and we have some doubts. Any info will be very much appreciated!

Do any of you have any experiences with any of these schools? It's a bit early for us to look into schools but I want to have a plan beforehand))) 

Hi to all!  Does anyone know anything about this school? We are looking for a school for my niece and we visited this one but we never met anyone whose kids go there and some inider information wouldbe nice to find. 

I have spoken to a few moms who send their kids there and the feedback is good. My DS is due there in Sept. 

Anyone has any info? I went there and really liked the place, but I've read some bad reviews, so I would like to get some insider information before I make a decision. Thanks in advance

Hi! I'm looking for any information about Lloyd Williamson Primary School in Ladbroke Grove if you've heard of it. Looking for a down to earth independent school near Queens Park that won't cost too much

My niece goes to Fulham Prep. So far so good as I know. Can't give much details though... 

Yeah, that's dilema... Compare the schools in your area and choose the one that suits your kid the most, private or state doesn't really matter if your child is happy
