Hi My daughter has been studying in Newton Prep in Battersea in Reception . But now we have to move her to a state school. She will be starting in Year 1 in September. Can I please get recommendations of good state schools in Vauxhall/ Oval/ Battersea area. My daughter is very social but sensitive at the same time. She enjoys both academics and physical activities.


I am really stressing out here. Please help me out.

Heathbrook is fantastic, but best go and have a look at options to get your own feel.

Our daughter loved HB. Brilliant teachers, wonderful creative side to the school, and it has a new 3G sports pitch and nature garden - both of which are very large. As a former secondary school it has a larger footprint playground that normal for a primary.

But always good to have a look. The head is brilliant too.

Hi there, we live in the area and know a few of the local state primaries. As a previous poster has noted, Heathbrook has a good rep and parents are very positive about it. You may also want to consider the Reay Primary which is very popular although over-subscribed - you'll need to live close. But it's a very good school and one people would move near to, to get a place. We also know a few parents who have sent children to Ashmole and been happy with it.

Yes as above the ones people talk about are Reay, Ashmole, Heathbrook. I am a HB mum (one kid just finished, one still there) and have been v v happy with it. Pleased we decided against private. Happy to answer any questions if you DM me 🙂
