With 200 pupils across four sites in Tolworth, Surbiton, and North Kingston, we pride ourselves on creating a nurturing and caring environment where every individual is valued and supported to reach their full potential.

We understand that emotional and mental health are vital to achievement, and our integrated approach supports pupils’ holistic development every day.

Testimonials

I'm just emailing to feedback some praise I had about a group from your school that were on a trip at IKEA Croydon today. The students were very well behaved and it was really heartwarming to see how engaged they were on their trip. I am relatively local to Dysart school and just wanted to pass on my praise to both your staff and students.
