Re: Thomas’s Clapham and Newton Prep assessment

I was a Thomas's Clapham parent (albeit some time ago) and also a teacher at Newton Prep for 15 years. Academically, there's not much to choose between them although Thomas's is probably more traditional. Teaching at both schools is generally excellent as are facilities although Newton has a huge al...

Re: Is having a 'bump' o a class night out usual?

Just 2 points! 1. Where did the event take place? If it was at a bar or restaurant or, heaven forbid, in the school, then apart from any other issue, it is putting the owners of the venue legally at risk - one assumes they were not party to the drug taking.  If it was in a private house, and without...

Re: is it ok for me to give a 15 year old a beer to have with friends?

At 15, he will be drinking illegally if you do as will his friends.  Please explain this to him.  He could be arrested if they are caught  If they want to drink underage they should be under supervision i.e. in someone's house or garden with an adult/adults present.

Re: Need advise from current Thomas's Clapham parents please!

I was a Thomas's Clapham parent and also a teacher at Newton Prep.  Both are good schools academically but very different in ethos and atmosphere.  Our son was happy at Thomas's until Year 7 when he started to be badly bullied by an 'Alpha boy' set - the school refused to acknowledge this and we wer...

Re: Northwood Senior

I hear on the prep school grapevine that many families who were offered places at both Northwood and Thomas’s Battersea Square have opted for Thomas’s on the grounds that the facilities are far superior and they offer the possibility of ‘A’ levels /IB whereas children going to Northwood will have to...

Re: Child safety in Clapham Common - please sign

Hm - quite a proportion of our lives are already covered by CCTV here in Clapham.  I really don’t think this is warranted - the clue is in the words ‘suspected, attempted’ - not that I’m suggesting we wait for a child to be taken but I think we need a bit more than this to warrant this intrusion int...

Re: Recommendation for a really excellent dentist?

Can thoroughly recommend Daniel Hopkins at the Half Moon surgery on Half Moon Lane. I used to be a total dental phone but have received wonderful painfree treatment from Daniel for 10 years now including extractions, root canal treatment and dental implants. You can’t do better!
