Kensington School Oakbrook

I couldn?t not disagree more with luv2teachtoo. This school was an extreme disappointment to us. We had such high hopes going in because we heard rave reviews about the curriculum. Well, shame on us for not researching everything else. I agree with the first reviewer in that the food is horrible. Our child would complain about it every day. Also, the teachers hand out skittles all day long to get the kids to listen to them. Very much like Pavlov?s dog. I?m not sure about the school(s) luv2teachtoo was at, but the one we were at didn?t have a single tree for shade on 2 of the 3 play areas they had outside. There is an extreme lack of care and compassion for the children from the staff, including the director(s). It?s all curriculum all the time, which is fine if you have children old enough, but let?s face it, when your child is 1, 2 and 3 years old, they are babysitters. Children at these ages need to be nurtured, not taught to all day. They lack cleanliness. EVERY day when we picked our child up he/she was completely filthy from head to toe. I could go on and on here, but hope anyone reading this gets my point. If you?re looking for a strictly school setting, this is your place. If you?re looking for a facility to care for your child with a little care and compassion then run far away from here and find another establishment. A 1 star rating is too much, but I was forced to put something. Pros: Curriculum Cons: Everything else. Lack of Care. Food. Kindness. Cleanliness. more

This is obviously written by a disgruntled family or former employee. Kensington School is ""the top preschool"" to get your little one into. I was with the school (several of them as I moved) for over 2 years and my child thrived, the elementary school teachers say every child from Kensington is very well prepared for school. I will leave it at that. Pros: Loving, caring staff in an enriched environment Cons: minor upkeep overall and uniformed staff not very uniform more

The teacher/child ratio is off almost every day...more children that you are promised. Pros: open 6 am to 6 pm. Cons: cost is high, bad value for money, bad food, no shade during summer recess, take out in winter when it's too cold, claim to be ""old fashioned"". more
