Hi


I am applying for primary school and I am thinking of putting Goodrich as a first choice. I don't know anybody with children at this school and would appreciate opinions from people with children attending this school; what's the school like? does the school have any sport and music provision? what's the teaching and teachers like?


Goodrich is our closest school with Heber being the second and Harrys third. I am concerned about the outdoor space for Heber and Harrys. If you have children at these schools could you please let me know if you/your child find this to be an issue. My child likes open spaces and hates crowds. Also, is there any sport and music provision at these schools?


What about extra curricular clubs/activities?



Thank you

We have just left Goodrich to move abroad, after a 5.5 year association with the school - my children were years 5, 4 and reception.


Sport and music at the school are outstanding. There is an amazing dedicated PE teacher who the kids love, and also additional sporting after/before school clubs.


Likewise, music at the school is brilliant. They have three music teachers, all excellent, and in the more senior classes they are given fantastic opportunities as part of the choir, if they are so inclined. My two older children got to sing at the VSO Carols Concert at Westminster just before the end of term, Goodrich were the only school involved!


My kids were all very happy there, the teaching is of a high standard.

    • No they aren't. You're coming across as a smug, superior liberal, and that's what old fashioned voters (labour, Cons and now Reform) hate. That 'the deplorables' 'they're all ignorant racists' line is what's driving people away from the traditional parties and towards Reform.  You're as guilty of looking back as Labour. This is a new, post-europe world and we all need to come to terms with that, make do with what we have, and move forward.       
    • I have sympathy with any voter, anyone, who having witnessed the last 14 years and then Labour in the last year and wonders just how can things be this bad  unless a) they voted for brexit b) voted Tory after 2010 c) is thinking of voting reform  because anyone who thinks reform won’t make things a thousand times worse after voting for the previous?  It is they who are the problem.  They are the reason the country is in the doldrums with an embarrassingly-timid Labour government  Specifically Chris mason - a not very bright right leaning stooge - large part of why bbc news has become grok-level slop  
    • In what way? Maybe it just felt more intelligent and considered coming directly after Question Time, which was a barely watchable bun fight.
    • Yes, all this. Totally Sephiroth. The electorate wants to see transformation overnight. That's not possible. But what is possible is leading with the right comms strategy, which isn't cutting through. As I've said before, messaging matters more now than policy, that's the only way to bring the electorate with you. And I worry that that's how Reform's going to get into power.  And the media LOVES Reform.
