“Like a village school in the city”

– Past parent

“At Dallington we observed the children, each and every one of them individual, happy, confident souls, often slightly scruffy and very articulate, every child recognised and rewarded for their individual strengths.”

– Past parent 

“We are really glad we moved school. The overview we have been given of the curriculum is along the lines of what we were hoping to hear; we just regret not thinking of making this move sooner.”

– Suzanne Deakin 

The Dallington approach to learning really prepares children well for secondary school. Working in topics means that they develop a broad range of knowledge and an understanding of how things can be approached from different viewpoints. It gets them ready to work on projects.” 

– Catherine Hall – past parent

“My child has gone into secondary school very sure of who he is, and very ready to stick up for others if they need it. He has an intrinsic understanding of diversity and of everybody mattering, and shows it in his everyday interactions. The small class sizes at Dallington really nurtured him, developing his sense of self so that by the time he was ready to spread his wings at secondary school he could fly!”

– Past parent 

“Looking back, it was probably the best three years of my childhood. I flourished, grew in confidence, became part of a tightly knit band of friends. I took entry exams for five of the top secondary schools in London and was offered a place at every one.”
