FEEDBACK FOR OUR SERVICES

Proven Success

At Keystone, we've assisted hundreds of families in securing placements at the UK's most prestigious independent schools. Our students have gained entry to leading day schools such as St Paul’s (Boys & Girls), Westminster, Godolphin & Latymer, and King’s College Wimbledon, as well as top prep schools like The Dragon, Ludgrove, and Summer Fields. We've also supported applications to renowned boarding schools including Cheltenham Ladies College, Eton, Harrow, Wycombe Abbey and Winchester College. 

We recognise that the ideal school for your child may not always be at the top of league tables. Our extensive experience enables us to guide families toward schools that offer a more holistic approach, specialise in SEN support, or provide exceptional programs in areas like sports, music, or drama.
