Kingswood school, any opinions ?

[relocate2Where]

Any opinions about Kingswood school, anyone?

It has Ofsted outstanding rating.
Yet, it seems to still not be full for Sep 2015, whereas the other two private schools, Ruckleigh and Eversfield are full (for Reception)

Any thoughts, anyone?

We have so far not visited any of these schools.Just information from their website and unfortunately, Kingswood doesn't have an online prospectus. The Ofsted report is all great.

We are in London and I know nothing about Solihull and surrounding areas.
So, over to you, local ladies in Solihull, please can you share some of your thoughts

Thank you

Hi we are relocating to solihull from Hampton in July, both of my kids will be attending kingswood school. (year 3 and reception)

We like Solihull as a town, nice wide streets and good selection of shops. House price not cheap but reasonable.

We visited Eversfield school last year , the school has fantastic facilities (swimming pool, massive grounds etc. ) We found it ok but nothing special.

Kingwood school was the last one we visited (we also visited solihull school for my 7 year old DD) , the school is set in an old building and has virtually no grounds. Facility wise not even comparable with most of the state schools.

We were not impressed at the beginning , but after we spoken to the headmaster, we decided to send the kids in for a day to try out, which turned out to be fine.

The headmaster seem to know what he is doing, and he is very good at it.
We wanted to find a school that the head actually care about the KIDS and we found it.

My kids have been attending a local independent school since nursery, and we have learnt lots about independent school since, and we are happy for what we found. I can't say we are experienced but we know what we want.

If you are interested, you should pay for a visit and speak with the headmaster.

Hi, does anyone have any recent reviews/ opinions on Kingswood school in Shirley please?
