The school's ethos is 'Friendship, Excellence and Opportunity' which reigned true during my 7 years…read morethere. The teaching standard is impeccable, with each department giving its all to every student. The staff are dedicated, professional, loving and are 75% responsible for the great success the school has had. The site itself is tremendously maintained; with new additions every year ranging from a new canteen, to a new media centre and consistent refurbishments to departments that require it. The resources are exceptional. Being a science and technology school, the ICT facilities are fantastic and are constantly growing - with a great technical support team lead by Ian Miller, who is always introducing more innovative and interactive ways to make the school's IT resources excel. The school is one of the top in the Borough, with outstanding A Level and GCSE pass rates that seem only to climb every year. A wonderful place to learn, grow and become an individual.
One of the most oversubscribed schools in central London just about says it all…read more It's not going to be a walk in the park to get your daughter into this Secondary school - but it'll certainly be worth it if you can. This superb school has achieved specialist status in a whole host of areas (check out their website) and continues to forge relationships that help it's students. The curriculum is broad and the staff really do go out of their way to help students and families. Staff are also handpicked so tend to be the cream of the crop. Worth working very hard at your speciality to get into this sought after school. School has a 6th form - when some boys are allowed in as well.
What an excellent find! My favourite exercise class has just moved venue and is now taking place in…read morethis beautiful centre. It's better than any public sports centres I have been to in London: clean changing/shower rooms with lockers, dance studio with full length mirror (actually, not sure if I actually like seeing my face turning red in real time), lovely exercise mats - and a music system that actually works! It's a bit difficult to find on the first visit as it's a concrete block hidden between the main building and the Westway flyover. Now that I know the way, I'll definitely return, perhaps not just for Rikki's class.
This sports centre has just opened so it's brand spanking, shiny, sparkly new. I come here on…read moreTuesdays for begininers parkour coaching. I used to have to schelp to Kensal but this is now much more convenient for me as it's a stroll from Royal Oak station. When going there for the first time take note that the entrance is actually on the side past the garage, not the main road. The sports hall is enormous and the parkour class shares the space with a basketball class but there's no clash and the two can occur concurrently with few problems. The floor is great (new), slightly squishy and with lots of markings for various sports, and the equipment is all super new which means it's very satifying to play with. The class itself is really good. An excellent workout in the warm up and warm down and a good level of challenging but achievable exercises working on various skills like congs, tic-tacs and sideways monkeys. i.e. jumping on, around or over stuff. It's really hard work but good fun and the instructors are very good. The only down side to the centre is that it's so new they have yet to put in vending machines so you can't get any drinks or snacks.

Not open to the general public but various clubs use this pool for training sessions both kids and masters and a swim school. If you live in the area this is a great place for your kids to learn to swim properly - all four strokes, tumble turns, diving - if they have been inspired to swim by the Olympic swimming competitions then this is a great option. New build pool - 25m length - perfect for training. The entrance to the pool is round the back - use The Bridge School entrance

Of course at school you get some teachers that are nice and some that are less pleasant to deal with. I always found it be modern, fresh and with great facilities.

If you live in the local area and are looking for somewhere to send our children I would recommend it because they are very dedicated to providing the best experience and there are some really great results form this school.
