Community schools in Kingston Upon Thames

“My daughter joined in September 2018 and has progressed really well attaining 80% in her 1st grade 1 ballet exam in June 2019. Many thanks to a fantastic teacher, Maria who groomed my daughter for such a great success. I definitely recommend Lyric dance school to All.”

“My daughter absolutely loves her dance classes with Danceforce. She’s been doing ballet for a few years and recently started modern too. She adores the teachers and really looks forward to the shows they put on. They’ve been brilliant throughout the lockdowns quickly switching classes to zoom when needed. It’s been amazing that she’s been able to carry on all year”

“The Pattern Cutting & Professional Sewing Techniques course was great. Paul Simonson is so knowledgable and shared that knowledge in an uncomplicated, easy manner. I learnt a lot in 2 short weeks and Phew. The other staff are great. Nina Hunt in the Short Course unit was so helpful and nice. Maureen in the Sewing department was so helpful and went above and beyond. Great place to study. Will definitely look at doing another course there. Ikwo 2015”

“Every single member of staff here are absolutely lovely! Been going here for the last 2 years for female contraception, and had my contraceptive implant done here. Have never had a bad experience, and the staff are beyond brilliant. I was terrified to get my implant but the nurse was so kind and put me at ease.”

“A wonderful, friendly school in a beautiful location!”

“While studying for my BBA, I realized the benefits of introducing additional finances and human resource policies, which resulted in a marked increase in productivity at my company. I always knew Kingston had a solid reputation; what I did not know was that the Kingston BBA would turn me from a project manager to an entrepreneur. My Kingston BBA was probably the single biggest step I took in transforming my career prospects: partly because of the great business grounding it gave me, but also because it gave me confidence that I could hold my own in a diverse business environment.”

“Initially, I was very reluctant on sending my daughter to a nursery, but after a visit to Stars Day Nursery Kingston I immediately felt at ease and it was an easy decision going forward. Staff are very welcoming with a genuine and caring nature. A calm and friendly environment means I go to work knowing my child is safe and well looked after. The nursery has a great space and a lovely garden which I know my daughter loves. I get daily updates on how my daughter is doing and how her day has been, including all the food she ate that she doesn’t eat at home!! I highly recommend this nursery and am over the moon by daughter has a place there.”

“A lovely environment to work in - I have been the bass instructor here since 2018! The students are keen to learn and they are progressing quickly, all this by learning some classic rock songs and not only!”

“My 5yr old daughter loves this performing arts combo class (dance, singing and drama). Savannah-Raé has a great rapport with the children. She knows how to keep the class engaged, build their confidence, and to listen to each other. I receive regular feedback on my daughter's progress and she has a great time. I would highly recommend.”

“Our daughter just finished a 2 week summer crash course and really enjoyed herself. Her swimming and confidence in the water improved significantly and the whole setup was excellently managed. Highly recommended.”

“I was in the year 1955-1956 I would love to meet one of my colleagues!”

“A wonderful nursery which my son attends. The setting/hall is amazing with a HUGE garden for the children to run around in. The teachers are extremely kind and clearly care a great deal about their children. My son settled in very quickly despite being shy and loves every minute of his time there.”
