Top 30 Best Community engagement in South Croydon

“It's so amazing anyone to think its not good well they ain't seen nothing yet. I love Stagecoach its my life xxxxx”

“My two have been attending for a year and they love it. Plus they have been brought out of their shells and made lots of friends. The teachers are very friendly and nice and encouraging and the whole thing is at much higher standards then other drama school”

“I think the classes are really good. All the coaches are very professional and very dynamic. I absolutely love the spin classes. I have been to many other providers in London and these spin classes are the best in my opinion. I like that the atmosphere is so supportive between members too, it just feels good to be in those classes. Maybe the gym area is a bit small, I do not use the changing rooms as I live nearby. I am yet to go to the swimming pool.”

“Love this school, hidden away in a residential area, you are welcomed by an old, huge building but it is not intimidating. The school is friendly and nurturing, like when I went to school. It is not like these academies that focus on results and not the children's wellbeing. The staff are friendly and my children made fabulous progress here! Dont just read ofsted reports, go and visit a school and talk to the people who work there day in and day out!”

“Excellent place for our little ones to start learning and enjoying swimming”

“I go to this school and it is a litt I love it and have only been in it for 2 months”

“Thought it would be useful to post a review on a recent piercing experience. Got my belly pierced and couldn't have had a better experience. The piercer was so precise and careful making sure everything was clean and the piercing ended up looking perfect! Friendly staff and a really hygienic and pleasant environment. Couldn't fault it”

“Great children's centre. My favourite. It has a sensory room and soft play. It is open every day, different activities. Check beforehand to avoid disappointment. It gets full so be on time.”

“This school really helps the children who needs special care and help ..”

“I’m a staff member and a parent, (on maternity) the girls are lovely, I felt welcome when I had started, my child absolutely loves it here and I know she is well looked after when I’m not there, she has learnt so much, they do so much with the children, amazing activities and themes they celebrate regularly and she always brings home work to show me and her dad, the company is brilliant, and they are a credit to Play Place, 5 star ⭐️”

“I have been working at Purley Oaks for over 10 years now as a class teacher , both in Year One and Reception. I can honestly say that I love it here. Everyone is so kind and welcoming . We all help each other out no matter what year group we are in or what job role we have - we are a great team! I was advised when I was an NQT to keep moving to different schools but I really don’t want to be anywhere else! In Reception we are a fantastic team and work very closely together. We have such fun and it is amazing to see the children progress throughout the year. I feel that in Early Years we give children a great start to their learning careers!”

“A great school that I attended 1960 - 1965. Teachers I remember Mr Rees, Mrs.fisher, Mrs. Coles all very strict but good.”

“Lovely teachers, good methodology, excellent facilities, overall very good school and most of all, my kids love going to school which is what it's all about at the end of the day.”

“A very friendly school which I enjoyed every bit since the start of the term.Best place ever!!!”

“A brilliant school! I was crying when I left at the end of year 6”

“Both of my children have attended this nursery. Staff are kind, attentive and professional. My children have always come home happy and content from being there. They have been superb during the pandemic. They are flexible to our needs when possible and really go the extra mile to do things for the kids. Highly recommend.”

“My Son has been at John Ruskin College for 18 months now and I have to say all the staff I have had dealings with so far have been friendly, helpful and enthusiastic about their students and subjects. With current online learning (due to Covid 19) the teachers and support team have been second to none and are constantly at the end of an e-mail if help is needed. With this help and support my Son (who doesn't find learning easy) passed his Sports course last year and has just passed his GCSE Maths. If this is your local College give them a chance, you may be pleasantly surprised?”

“My son is cherished and nurtured in this lovely school.”

“Amazing school with dedicated and caring staff AND its own radio station... watch out Capital radio!”
