Grammar Schools - Kingston area

[cmdall]

Hello, we are currently living abroad and thinking to come back to Kingston area in the search of good primary state schools. After a few years, children will go to secondary school. I appreciate if you can advise on nice primary state schools that then children could have a smooth access into the grammar schools in Kingston area. We are flexible with the location as we are only focus on the good schools. Thank you for your support! X

It doesn't work like that. Children have to sit exams for entry to Tiffins and the other grammar schools...very oversubscribed. Kingston Grammar is private.

There is no such thing as “smooth access” to selective secondary schools in London and the SE! It’s a highly competitive market/process and you will need to work very hard at it, even if your DC are at great schools.

Worth noting the Inner Area gives (some) priority to Tiffin Girls, that’s the wards of:
Berrylands
Beverley
Canbury
Coombe Hill
Coombe Vale
Grov
Norbiton
St Mark's
Tudor
Ham, Petersham and Richmond Riverside

It’s worth looking at the admissions criteria in detail.

Do an IQ test.They use to do this at Kingston primaries many years ago(2009) and achieve around 120-125 and you are Tiffin material.

The Sutton schools are excellent too.
