Reviews of Queen's College
A. J.The school is welcoming and innovative. The amount of clubs, sports and societies is excellent. Encouraging older girls to mentor younger and getting them to work as a team. Teaching staff friendly and approachable and they encourage a joy in learning. There is a great supportive and nurturing environment in the school and parents are encouraged to be part of the school life through regular PTA updates and events. I highly recommend this school.
S. K.This a wonderful senior school where my daughter is thriving both academically and socially. There are expectations of high standards of behaviour and clear codes of conduct whilst being incredibly nurturing. The school has a good leadership team and focus on pastoral care. The transition from the prep school was seamless and with a very similar ethos. We find the West End location incredibly well placed for our family's needs and are proud to be part of the QCL community.
K. G.A great school which suited both my two very different daughters. QCL encourages individuality and supports the students' variety of skills. Academic standards are on the rise, and come from the Principal's firmly held belief that happy children will succeed, rather than from a pressured, hot-house environment. Pastoral care is excellent.
S. C.This is such a wonderful school. The wrap around care for new senior girls starts before they begin, buddying them with another student. Pastoral care is a big priority for the Head and the leadership team. It is not a cliquey or stuffy school environment.
Well established parent association who actively raise money for charities and create events for parent networking.
6th form curriculum is challenging but manageable, and small class sizes help students to keep up to speed. Busy diary of in-school clubs, after school lectures, music, volunteering and peer mentoring opportunities, and varied sports activities.
J. S.This is a first rate school, my daughter could not be happier. The staff are committed, friendly and always helpful. The number of extra curricular activities on offer is huge, and the pastoral care is second to none.
A. d. J.Absolutely love Queen's College - the headmaster is inspirational contemporary, and addresses real-life issues which young girls and women are facing these days. Staff is very attentive, caring and positive. Nourishing, learning environment!
J. B.I can’t say enough positive things about Queen’s College. My daughter started this year and, after two challenging pandemic years and moving from her lovely neighbourhood pre-prep school to a “big school” I have been blown away at their pastoral care and genuine support and positivity. The headmaster is strong in vision but human and approachable. In a year that has seen the departures of incredible heads from very established London public schools, he remains very much in command of his ship. From the very first video tour (we weren’t able to visit in person due to COVID regs) where the he told us, with humour and self depreciation, that a recent graduate had been accepted to Oxbridge but selected a different university option “every Headmasters dream” to the first parents meeting when he addressed maybe 100+ of us with a tooth emergency and half-numbed face he handles challenges with aplomb.
The parents are culturally diverse and kind - genuinely helpful to one another. The school’s central location draws families from all over London - which is also a huge positive for the girls! The girls get study-buddies and big sisters and have many opportunities to work together and meet people throughout the school. What better preparation is there for the world they will enter than to understand, appreciate and celebrate cultural and individual differences and similarities and knowing we are all in it together?
My last worry about joining was the inaccessibility to sports grounds - a challenge with any central school - but Queen’s has done a great job of creating meaningful sporting opportunities for the girls with after school clubs and squads offering loads of chances to try something new or improve a skill and lots of exercise time.
I’ve learned, over the years, that not every school is a fit for every child - and the school that you went to or your daughters best friend attends might not be right for you. And Queen’s won’t be right for everyone - but I have to say, if you judge a school by looking forward and not looking back Queen’s is , and Queen’s girls are, going places.
K. T.My daughter is incredibly happy at Queen's. Despite starting there in September 2020, her first year coinciding with the Covid pandemic and us parents not being able to set foot inside school or meet any of her teachers in person during that whole first year the fact that it is a very special school shines through in so many ways.
Mr Tillett is an incredible Head who is approachable and goes that extra mile all the time.
After our first term at Queen's, we went into homeschooling and that was also managed really well. One day during homeschooling, my daughter received a 'Pastoral Postcard Award' in the post recognising her hard work. Just little touches like that make such a huge difference.
Queen's is more than a school; it is a community and that still came through despite starting during a pandemic. I look forward to life returning to a bit more normal, so we can finally start experiencing Queen's fully and in person.
I can't speak highly enough of Queen's. My daughter is thriving!
V. P.We have been part of the school for the last 4 years and, as parents, we couldn't be happier.
Our daughter has flourished and has grown from a timid 11 yrs old to a confident and kind teenager.
The school has proven multiple times that the academics are as important as the social values.
Mr Tillett nomination to Tatler's Headmaster of the Year Award is proof of his commitment to the school and how he is highly respected by both the parents ans his peers.
A great all around school, located in the heart of London and providing a multicultural environemnt for its students.
Its location allows to have access to everything London can offer. From museum, to theatre and to architectual discoveries Queens College London teachers' take advantage of every aspect of this cosmopolitan city.
M. O.Queen's College is an academically excellent, vibrant, creative and caring school. Highly recommended!
