What The Good Schools Guide says..
Space and trees - what luxury for a school so very near to London. The old buildings lend character and style, but the new buildings provide fabulous facilities.

Students are ‘taught to think’ and parents are pleased that children are ‘independent, organised, and it is up to the child to get their work done’...
