Private Schools

love this school so much very inspirational, excellent ethos and great teachers!

The school was started in 1895 by Miss Lloyd and Miss Cornwall at 103A Fulham Road. At that point the school, known as the Cornwall and Lloyd School, shared premises with Dunn and Co the hatters and The Sports Motor Car Co. At some point between 1902 and 1918, the school moved to 5 Glendower Road and changed its name to Glendower School. After 2 years in Glendower Road, the school relocated once more, this time to 25 - 27 Cromwell Road. The school remained at this site from 1920 until 1939 when the Second World War forced an evacuation to Devon. Glendower moved into 87 Queen’s Gate in 1947 where it has remained with some extension and expansion until the present day.

A fantastic place with some of the most supportive teachers that enable you to achieve whatever you set out to do. Couldn't recommend it more to anyone looking at a sixth form college.

Wetherby was founded by Mr and Mrs Gerald Russell in Wetherby Place, SW7 in 1951. It moved to Pembridge Square, W2 4ED in 1971 when it became part of Davies, Laing and Dick Educational Group with its own board of governors. In 2002, Wetherby became part of the Alpha Plus Educational Group. Wetherby School is divided between two sites. Little Wetherby and Reception are based at 19 Pembridge Villas and Years 1, 2 and 3 are based at 11 Pembridge Square. Wetherby School belongs to the Alpha Plus Group, who own a number of schools and colleges, mostly located in London. The Alpha Plus governors carry out the corporate governance responsibility for the school.

Both my son and my daughter have been very happy there. I am aware of a small number of problems in the 1970's but that is a very long time ago !

Luke has an incomparable experience and attention to detail in teaching British English prononciation. I took 20 hours and still hungry for more lessons, as the structure, the method and the whole system is built up in a very smart way. The knowledge you can get is beyond expectations. Even after 10 lessons, people stopped asking me “sorry, say it again”. The clear speaking gives me confidence both in private and professional life. The lessons are tailored to your personal needs, focusing on weaknesses, considering the characteristics of your native language. Luke has a thorough knowledge of foreign languages and the differences between the English and foreign vowels, word stress and so on. This makes the course even more unique!”

A very excellent Independent School. Your child is asured of great educational values well structured for a bright future.

Redcliffe School is an excellent private school. Our 3 children have attended here for over 4 years now and they love it. If you are looking for a friendly, relaxed and happy environment in which to educate your kids, this is it.

GREAT

As a former student - great school with amazing staff and activities!!

High turn over if staff. In four years my child has had 3 new teachers, ... needing to learn the ropes, making mistakes, not informing us of information needed. A bit fed up. Pastoral care is not very good, I would say nor is academic, seeing how most pupils did not get into there first follow on chosen schools. Sports is definitely pretty bad, go to a any sport match against another school. Having said that the new head is proving to be good.
