Because of that there were many good memories around the church and on the playground. I was always fond of the chapel itself but ever since it burnt down in the mid 2000s it hasn't been the same.

We had our wedding ceremony at the Alverthorpe Manor in Sept 2018 and it was great!

My two daughters went to TMS from toddler through 6th grade. We had an outstanding experience…read morethere. Both of them went on to highly selective schools afterwards and had a common issue for TMS graduates-they were a year+ ahead of their peers. The students there are academically advanced because they understand the material more deeply than through typical teaching methods. They also learn to be part of a community and to relate to the broader world. The proof is in the pudding: one of ours went to a selective college at 16 and the other is getting straight As at a competitive private high school. I can't say enough about how strong this tiny school is.

Just like in our corporate world, HR protects the employer and employees. The same applies to this…read moreschool. The school admin wasn't interested in fixing the setbacks experienced by parents ( plural because I had happened to speak with many more former parents about their bad experiences). Still, they weren't willing to speak up because they were hoping for a better review from the school as the kids went to private. My son's teacher was obnoxious; she had no respect for anyone. She applauded kids who were socially outranking each other and didnt appreciate the introverts or slow speakers. As a bilingual family, we were frowned upon, and our son's personality was constantly pushed around as a delay or blaming it because we were bilingual. Our interactions with the school during the parent meetings were dry. There was zero compassion and interest in your child's attitude. Extremely short days and holidays took a significant toll on us because we never felt our kid had a constant school day to settle, make friends, or learn anything. The Montessori concept is working in silo for most hours of the day; I noticed my son would pick the wrong items to match or do something terrible that wouldn't get corrected because Montessori meant independence. I witnessed this when I was there for Mother's Day. My heart is sad and angry at the same time as I type this, but I am thrilled that my eyes and brain worked at the right time before we made a mess with our son's life. He is so happy at his new school.
