September 8, 2024 at 5:35 amThey are so devoted and adore and take care of the kids so much. You could tell they are really interested in the development of the kids and are consistently so proud of them. The educators are very communicative and keep us updated with everything related to my son whether in relation to his development, interests, achievements etc… And consistently praise him. Something that we do appreciate very much. The educators at the childcare centre are excellent.

Both my sons have had, and continue to have, a fantastic time at Dallington despite their very different requirements and personalities and I would suggest it as a childcare centre to any parent.
It has given my kids a excellent start in their educational journey. Dallington is a fantastic childcare centre that understands and thrives in the knowledge that kids are individuals that have their own needs and develop at their own different speeds.

November 9, 2024 at 11:27 pmThe educators are welcoming, expert and are proactive in his development. Discovering is enjoyable, his reading, writing and self‑assurance has improved considerably. We’re really pleased that we’ve chosen Dallington for our son, it’s the perfect school for him. My son loves the time he spends at Dallington.

January 17, 2025 at 11:29 pmThough the principles of the education were exactly what I wanted for my kid, allowing the kid to be a kid, to grow into who they should be instead of forcing round pegs into square holes and chastising the kid for not being square; there were aspects that I felt were a little cold when I attended open days.
Dallington is the perfect fit, it not only offers the aforementioned education but it offers it in a inviting and family like setting. Kids grow up together in small classes with low teacher to student ratios. My son has been with Dallington for 6 months and I can already see his self‑assurance has grown. Old students return to help out at fetes and the parents that I have spoken to who have sent their younger kids to Dallington speak of an inner happiness and genuine adore for education in the older kids that attended Dallington. The two things that I want most for my kid! I had consistently intended for my son to attend a private school.

February 2, 2025 at 11:11 amI have had journey with other nurseries and what I particularly like about Dallington is that the team are experienced individuals who have been with the school for a long time. Every one of them takes an interest in your kid as an individual. Excellent feedback on development both on a formal basis but also through the term. I sense that they provided all of my kids with a great foundation from which to start their more formal schooling. Dallington creates a fantastic nurturing setting for the kids.

February 19, 2025 at 7:26 amIt has the right mix of discipline, free playtime and group activities. The team adore working there and it shows in their relationships and works with the kids. The important thing is that it’s not just a childcare centre, but also part of a school with all the ethos that goes along with that. Kids also have opportunities to meet kids in other class years, and the older kids are very welcoming and big brother/sister like with the younger ones. Dallington School is an outstanding childcare centre with a inviting, creative, nurturing setting.

March 17, 2025 at 12:49 amIt is a inviting, creative, open minded and high achieving (without the ‘hothouse’ type school pressures or concerns) school. Kids here are cheerful, compassionate, community minded and they get a stellar education – both academically and how to be great people in the world. I think this is a very special and unique place. Not uptight and bureaucratic, yet very well run and expert. Dallington is one of the few non selective coeducational kid led discovering schools I have come across in England.

March 25, 2025 at 12:19 amThey strongly encourage curiosity and build that fantastic and all too rare trait of a genuine adore of discovering. The childcare centre in particular has provided both of my kids with a exceptional start to their educational journey, despite their very different personalities and approaches. Both my kids truly adore school, which says it all! Dallington is a fantastic school: open, inclusive and highly supportive of both the kids in the school and the parents and carers of those kids.

May 20, 2025 at 11:13 amOur son started in the upper childcare centre and has thrived in this nurturing setting. He feels he is part of a family here and can be his own authentic self and has made lots of friends. The kids are diverse spanning lots of nationalities and this was a huge plus for us. The educators are exemplary; they are passionate and encouraging whilst challenging kids to fulfil their potential. As parents, we get regular feedback and there’s an open dialogue with parents. The classes are small and so it feels as though kids get a lot of attention to their specific needs. There’s a real spirit of encouraging individuality and independent thinking which resonates with us strongly as parents. Dallington is a fantastic school.

May 24, 2025 at 1:51 pmWhen you go to pick the kids up it is clear that they are extremely focused in whatever activity they are doing. I think also it encourages curious minds, which is excellent. Dallington childcare centre is an extremely supportive setting where kids can learn, explore, be creative and develop as individuals with self‑assurance.

May 26, 2025 at 5:18 amHe is in the lower childcare centre. We are extremely cheerful with the school. My son is very cheerful, and his self‑assurance has grown. He is excited about discovering. The school has a lovely and nurturing atmosphere. Team are so lovely. Each kid is treated as an individual with their own specific needs and talents. I would suggest Dallington School to any parent who is looking for a school providing high standards of education while making sure kids are improving in all aspects of life. My son started at Dallington School ten months ago.

The school and its community is very welcoming and welcoming and has a real family and intimate sense, which is just what I wanted for our kids after moving back to London from overseas. The teacher/kid ratio is remarkable, allowing the kids to soak up the teaching easily and in a personal way. The kids delight in mixing with the lovely older kids which is excellent for their self‑assurance and social skills. It’s a little village school in central London. Dallington is unique…
