Dear all,


I am looking for a school place in east dulwich for my daughter. The most accessible school in terms of catchment area is the green goose.


I was wondering what people were thinking of the school? I am particularly interested in testimonies from existing parents.


Many thanks in advance

I have children in Y2 and Y4, they love school and are thriving. The school is a national support school (ie considered so good that it mentors less successful schools). It is ambitious, nurturing, friendly and vibrant. There is an open morning on Tuesday 5th, come and see for yourself. There are usually parents of current students on hand to chat after the tour.

What year group are you hoping to join?

I'm very happy with the school - my son is in year 4 and doing very well. In addition to the strong academics at the school, I'm particuarly pleased that his talent in art and music is recognised and able to be developed by a full-time art teacher (a art school graduate) and full-time music teacher (practicing musician and graduate of trinity college of music)


There is a tour for prospective parents tomorrow morning - Tuesday 5th November. Come to the school by 9:15am (prompt start so come early if you can). After the tour, prospective parents can meet existing parents over tea and coffee and get a parents persepective on the school.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
