A private boarding and day school for boys and girls.FRom first hand experience I knoiw that it is…read morea really caring environment for boarders and a jam packed curriculum and social life.Very impressed with the variety and level of activities offered and lovely staff too.Fabulous grounds by the river and walkable to Cambridge town centre.I have a young relative at 'The Leys'. She is not used to the UK and had not studied all of the appropriate work to start A level but she has settled in so well and has rapidly caught up with her peers.Obviously that's due to a lot of hard work on her part but also I think to the sensitive treatment and sensibilities of the staff,particularly the house mistresses.Recommended.

I'm really pleased with the middle school choice I made for my daughter. She's very pleased with…read moreWestley Middle school . The staff which we have had contact with have been lovely. There are many lunchtime/ after school clubs and the school appears to have strong sports and music departments. Just such a pity they are getting rid of Middle Schools :(

Both my kids have attended this school (my youngest is still there) and I have to say it is the…read morebest school in the area. All the children in the school are polite and well behaved. Many people have commented on how good they are. For those who believe in SAT results their Maths, Science and English are all around 95% pass mark. The 3 tier system I think works really well and both of my children have benefited from being in it. At the age of 9 they both had the benefits of high school without the size.

My son attended Daisies Montessori Nursery in Little Stukeley, just before receiving the free…read more15-hour/week attendance. While he started off well, his experience also ended horribly. Before deciding as a family to no longer attend the school halfway through term, the manager did not hold back on how she felt about my son. When any family is spending quite a sum of CASH and trusting a school to teach and care, the last thing we expected was a manager raising her voice in complaint. In addition, she commented, "now if we can only find out if he is normal enough in social settings" after constant mention in annoyance (on her part) that I needed to get my son looked into by a professional. Of course we received no apology for her unprofessional actions, denying that she ever raised her voice, nor did we receive a refund. Also, the only person my son has no desire to cuddle nor say hello/goodbye is the manager and staff there. Luckily, we were able to get our son attend another school who have confirmed there is nothing wrong with my son and that he is an absolute joy. He now looks forward to going to school, loves to cuddle and say hello/goodbye to all the carers there.

My son attended Daisies from January 2015 to July 2016 and he enjoyed every minute! He made his…read morefirst friends there and truly enjoyed the activities. I was particularly keen of the Montessori learning as my son likes to follow his own interest. He loved learning about animals and the countries of the world and he still does now! His key worker made her best to make him comfortable and helped him to settle. We liked the online learning system that allowed me, working full time to see pictures of my child. It's also a lovely location within the village with a big field and playground.

What a lovely school. This has such a good reputation and lots of people try to get their kids in…read morehere even if they don't live too close by and have to travel in by car. This is a big downside as there is no parking at the school as it is just down a little walkway so access is for staff parking or disabled access only. The head teacher is a young guy who is keen and raring to make the school a great place. They are very eco friendly and are very good at growing their own produce which they use for school meals. The school itself is not a huge building but will be growing in size once it becomes a primary school rather than in the three tier system that it it is in now. Overall a really good school with a nursery. Good links with the pre school nearby.

If you are just in Cambridge for the day, it is unlikely you will venture out to visit Girton. A…read moreCollege originally built for just girls, this College is situated a little outside town. Its locality only adds to its splendor. Driving up to the College you are struck by a huge imposing tower, Gothic-like turrets and large dark windows. The grounds are rolling, with rabbits and deer jumping around them. The College is a huge expansive of gorgeous red Gothic brick, giving the feel of a grand boarding school, rather than a Cambridge College. It is also the only College to have its own indoor swimming pool. If you get a chance to visit Girton, you really should. It is unlike any other College, and is unique in its imposing beauty and vast grounds.

We visited Wysing Arts Centre for a childrens' workshop in August on a wet Saturday afternoon. The…read morestaff were very engaging and enthisiastic, they had provided lots of really good quality materials for the kids to use and some nice advice and enouragement during the afternoon. The place itself is interesting to explore, there was a big recycling project going on when we were there. Definitely worth a visit when they have an event on.
