DEAR SOUTH-WEST LONDON PARENTS
Welcome to the tenth annual NappyValleyNet Schools Guide
This year’s guide is bursting with ideas, advice and best practice for parents to help ease the multiple issues and challenges influencing our education system.
How should schools tackle smartphone usage and long hours online, mental health issues, closing the gap between parents and schools and revising the curriculum so it is fit for purpose? Our expert contributors share their insider knowledge on these and other issues, including the spectre of VAT on private school fees.
We also unpick the value-add that boarding delivers, the pros and cons of online v in-person tutoring and advise how best to reduce the pressure of admissions tests on your child.
Read about how schools are teaching climate change, the move away from the one-size-fits-all approach to neurodiverse children, how to optimise open day visits and navigate life at the school gates.
Before signing off, I’d like to thank our four local Preferred Property Partners for their local insight and unwavering support
– John Thorogood, Rampton Baseley, Savills and Wilfords.
We hope all the information and practical advice contained within these pages will lead you to the best educational home for your child.
Warmest wishes
