Urgent advice needed on primary schools in Dulwich

Recommended Posts

Dear all,


We have relocated back to London since July and now live in North Dulwich at Red Post Hill.


It was always our intention to send our children to the nearby Charter School and that's why we moved to here. However, I just found out that my youngest daughter who will only turn 11 in this October will not be qualified for secondary school admission in September (although she did finish primary education in June before our relocation and was the youngest in her class). Anyway, I have to start the primary school search from scratch as previously I only focused on secondary schools. I found Dulwich Hamlet Junior School quite a good school but the admission office of Southwark Council said the school is full now and will have to put my daughter on waiting list only. The admission office asked me to name a few other primary schools that we prefer and they shall contact the schools to find out if they have space. Can any parents here share any insight about other good primary schools in the Dulwich area, especially the ones that are near to Red Post Hill? Do you any good schools that may have space for in-year admission for Year 6?


Grateful for your advice. And many thanks in advance.


Best,

Hi Polingc,

I hope you found a suitable volleyball club for your daughters. Judith Kerr has one year 6 class. It's a bit different to the other schools as it's a bilingual English/German school. I've heard positive reports about it and the other schools mentioned above. Heber may be another school to add to your list. All of these are popular schools with local parents.

Good luck.

Renata

Do you mean St Saviour's Primary School which is just off Red Post Hill on Herne Hill Road?


St Faith's is the local church on Red Post hill.

    • Another great encounter with Aria. A leaking toilet was fixed quickly and cleanly and for a reasonable price. Aria’s always going to be our first call for plumbing work, and he knows a lot of good local people for their types of jobs.
