Very good. Does anyone know what the fees are and how they compare to other private schools?

[kidzibuzi]

Bolingbroke is a state school.
No fees but a very active Parents Association who raise money for the school.
Parents monthly or one-off donations of any amount are also much needed to support all the amazing work already done by the school staff!

Well done Bolingbroke. The road now has an Outstanding primary school as well as an Outstanding secondary school.

This result will make the school even more popular, especially with non-local residents.

With this in mind, what happened to making Bolingbroke Academy a School Street?

I have lost track of the number of near misses between Bolingbroke pupils and cars.

Part of Belleville Road is already a school street for Belleville Primary due to the unacceptable levels of car traffic outside the school during pickup/ drop off, so it makes sense to extend the School Street to Bolingbroke Grove as well.

Making the entire length of Belleville Road into a School Street will incorporate both (Outstanding) schools.

Bolingbrook is a secondary school, children should be road wise by now.


The fines and queues in Balham when the Chestnut Grove Secondary road changes were implemented, pushed by one of the local Labour councillors is often now more dangerous. We shall wait to see if accidents happen from the changes and we can then ask questions.

School streets just block the surrounding roads traffic and are not good things. Each school street costs taxpayers £10k to £50k, for EACH one.

Exactly. thought it was for small kiddies.

Chestnut Grove area is a nightmare now, I hope the labour councillor is happy. She's not been hailing it as a success or mentioning it in public. I expect she's crawled back into her hole now her personal project is done.

Well done to Ms Edis and all of the fantastic teachers at Bolingbroke - this is so well deserved.
