Where our children spend most of their week and how they are being educated is a decision which should take some serious consideration. We have put together this list of suggestions to make your life a little bit easier. Many local schools and nurseries offer free tours so please go and visit your choice options before making that final important decision.

Tanbridge House School Tanbridge House School is an inspiring place. This is true from the viewpoints of both students and adults. We all share the same goals and continue to strive to be ‘exceptional every day’. First and foremost, we are a community school which allows each individual to thrive and develop. I believe that the very best schools are underpinned by the strongest foundations. At Tanbridge House, the highest standards of student care, conduct and discipline are prized above all else. Every child must enjoy coming to school to learn in a happy and secure environment. We are proud, therefore, to be a school that values a kind and caring community based upon mutual respect and a strong understanding of our individual and collective responsibilities. From this basic starting point every child can then meaningfully engage in the superb learning opportunities – curricular and extra-curricular – that we offer.
