What The Good Schools Guide says..
Feels small in places to those of us of adult size, lots of narrow stairways in a building that clearly wasn’t designed to be a school, but happy, smiling children tell us how much they love it and feel at home here. It feels industrious and busy; success is valued and recognised through a variety of sticker and badge-wearing opportunities. Those with a special gift or ability are championed and the whole school celebrates different cultural and religious events. Parents like and appreciate clear feedback about progress and describe the regular reports home as ‘especially motivating’...
What the school says...
Richmond House School offers a nurturing, family environment where everyone knows each other, small class sizes along with specialist teaching from nursery in music, PE and languages.
The school is renowned for its outstanding standards of education with the top grade of “excellent” across the board in the most recent full ISI inspection and consistently outstanding 11+ examination results.
With over 10 acres of land, which includes an outdoor yurt classroom and a range of sports pitches and tennis courts, the school has a superb sporting reputation and its strong culture of music and drama is demonstrated in impressive performances and concerts throughout the year.
Every child is encouraged to develop and explore their own interests and strengths, academic or otherwise, and the children leave at age 11 as well-rounded and self-assured individuals. ...Read more
