Redcliffe Gardens School vs. Parsons Green Prep

Does anyone have any experience with these schools? I'd be really interested to hear. We are currently looking at these options for DD1 for 4+ entry in September. Thanks in advance

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Set a reminder

@FlyingFish1 : have you paid deposits to both schools?
Parsons Green required quite a large deposit quite early comparing to other schools in the area. My DH paid it so DS will join Parsons Green in September 2023. I do not know personally anyone but we met one family whose DS will start Parsons Green Reception in September. They know someone whose DC goes to Parsons Green and is happy there.
Our know someone who sent DD to Redcliffe nursery, have been happy with the nursery and decided DD will join Redcliffe Reception.
Redcliffe is part of Godolphin & Latymer. I would imagine it is good for girls.
I think because both schools are quire small there are not many people with recent experience or people are afraid to be recognized.
I guess both schools are good but nothing like Bute or Glendower or Falkner, the schools that MN revs about.
Parsons Green admits 30ish children in Reception but I have read that only 15ish stay for Y3.

Thank you so much 🙏🏼 I think we will go with Eaton House now..

Eaton House and others are too far to commute from our home for 4 year old child.
Thomas's Fulham is closest but we did not win the ballot.
That's why we thought DS will start Parsons Green and then we will see how is he doing.

Redcliffe Gardens just got shut down by Godolphin and Latimer who own it, presumably they are going to sell the real estate and make a small fortune!

My DS is at Cameron Vale school as we suspected that Godolphin was likely to do this, after our tour there. All seems very shady.
