Nurturing but academic pre-prep?

[Elfina]

This is all very new for me, so be gentle! Am interested in finding a warm, nurturing school for my DD, who is showing signs if being very bright. We live in South London. Any ideas of where to start looking?

I would start a new thread with details of your location then local people will pop up with their thoughts!

Have a look at Bute House

Agree with CharlesRyder. Where in South London do you live?

Bute House is located in Brook Green, near Hammersmith/Shepherds Bush, all girls, lottery age 4 and 7+ entry exams. Feeder to St Pauls Girls.

I would not have suggested that school for a South London location...hence the question about where you live exactly.

You could start by looking at www.isc.co.uk/find-a-school then each school's website , then visit. Maybe look at GDST schools as there are several in the suburbs .Where in S London are you based and how far would you journey ?

How old is your dd , often you need to register very early to get in at 4+. Early Years settings are also Ofsted inspected, even in independent schools, so you can refer to that too.

We're in crystal palace. DD is two.

Sorry, I've got two threads running now!

Herne hill prep, pre-school at Dulwich prep - both with a view of getting into JAGs at 7+ or 4+.
