Hi. Does anyone know anything about The Mall School on Hampton Road in Twickenham? If anyone has/had boys there I'd love to hear any comments. I am thinking of sending my sons there and would love to get an inside view before coughing up the hefty committal fee!

Thanks

DS1 (year 4) has played football against The Mall - The Mall's home grounds are in Bushy Park, which suggests they manage to deal with any lack of outside space. We are a bit anti The Mall after that match, but that is because DS1's team lost 5-0, and DS1 is goalie.... apparently the post-match tea was yummy.

Sorry if this is not terribly helpful! however DS2 is currently in year 2, and it is the smallest intake in our school with spaces for children to start tomorrow, I expect. Very much the credit crunch year! I think if your child is in that age group he or she will find a space this year, and at the start of year 3, and then it will be waiting lists as usual. Are you panicking enough to move your child before September? I think that would up your chances of a place.

If I had a second son, I wouldn't send him to The Mall after what my DS has been through there.

Hi there Rohser

-found your comment interesting as The Mall is one school I have looked at for boys aged 5 and 7.

Why wouldn't you send another son there?

I have just found out that my eldest, who is academically inclined, has dyslexia too so I am trying to make sure I find a school with classes that are smallish, structured and quiet.

I went to see the Mall... haven't seen Radnor House or Falcons yet.

Was told about a school in fulham for kids with dyslexia and dyspraxia too.

hi there,

I was wondering if you could give me a clue as to why you wouldn't send another son to The Mall? My son is mildly dyslexic , not very sporty, but bright and has been offered a place at Falcons but I am trying to look at a few more schools before making a final decision. A friend of mine has urged me to look at The Mall....not sure though...don't know why.

Hi does anyone know if there is availability at Mall school year 1 now, or year 2 in September?

Don’t quote me here but im pretty sure there is. I spoke to the Head not long ago, and it looked like covid has affected many parents making decisions too soon. So a lot of parents have left school choices quite late. I reckon there will be places, but I assume the school isn’t responding to emails at the moment, because of holidays?

Thank you very much, I hope they do 🙏🏻 Indeed need to wait till next Wednesday.

LittleRedHen86 · 08/04/2021 13:06

Good luck, I’m fairly certain they’ll still have places!
