chiswick and bedford park prep - any info?

[redwhiteandblue]

We're considering this school for dds, but I don't know any other parents with children there

We like it, but are a bit concerned about the lack of outdoor space. Does anyone have dcs there or know anything about it? Thanks

i had a great time there when i was there 30 years ago - the playground seemed huge - it is a small school so numbers using it aren't that high, but when i saw it in October i did think the playground was small. hope the thursday lunches are better than in my day - spam, smash and baked beans yuk.

They don't do hot lunches any more, which is another minor concern

The head wouldn't let us look at the playground at the back, which made us a bit . But I think there's a lot more to a school than huge playing fields

obviously my experience is too long ago to be relevant but we did go to the parks for more running around and the church hall for gym. it used to get very good results for getting children into good fee paying schools. What part of chiswick do you live in?

We're in Hammersmith

We may not get places there anyway, but I liked it. Dh is more ambivalent.

you know your child and what would suit them best - my knowledge of primary schools in hammersmith is weak, but i'm good on the secondary
