- “I have been Headmaster of Naima JPS since September 2008 and have had various dealings with the management and staff at The Elms. At all times, they have been very professional and accommodating and I have been impressed with the quality of the staff who teach PE and Games at the school.
We recently had an Independent Schools Inspection and the PE lessons were seen to be outstanding! I have been in discussion with the management to discuss future plans and timetabling and have always been treated courteously and efficiently and reaching agreement over terms and conditions was very straightforward.
I would strongly recommend The Elms to other schools or educational establishments.”
Bill Pratt
Headmaster, Naima JPS, Maida Vale - “When the time came to change our PPA provider, our priority was an efficient, professional service that helped us to deliver the highest quality curriculum. The Elms has delivered all of this… We will certainly be continuing our relationship with The Elms and I recommend them whole-heartedly.”
Faith Hood
Head Teacher
St Andrews C.E. Primary School, Enfield - “There are so many positive things to say about The Elms organization that it is hard to know where to start! The office set up was like clockwork and Angie is always on the ball and super organized. We love Coach Michael! He has an amazing rapport with the children and is admired and respected by all who work with him. He is a full member of our team!”
Ms Lindsey Woodford
St Saviour’s C of E Primary School, Maida Vale - “Our sports coach is thoroughly professional and reliable and crucially, a committed member of our team. He teaches all age ranges and co-ordinates an after school activities club with great flexibility. In addition to teaching, our coach also assesses pupil progress in order to report to parents.”
Holy Trinity School
Northwood - “My son Alex started the football session at Grimsdyke School this term, more than a little reluctant. Elms staff were very accommodating to us and the young coach, Gary, has been wonderful with Alex, as with all the other children. He has much energy and enthusiasm, which has rubbed off on and inspired Alex. We are so pleased that Alex is involved in a healthy, fun, social activity with his peers and owe much of our gratitude to Gary’s patience and encouragement.”
Mrs Parpotta

Grimsdyke School, Hatch End - “We use The Elms within the PE/Games curriculum and as extra-curricular sports coaches. The coaches are always on time and courteous. They respond to the needs of the pupils and set a good example. The office staff are always willing to help and set out to be flexible and reliable at all times. I am very impressed with all aspects of the service they provide..”

They support the children wonderfully and give awards and certificates fairly to all, which builds confidence. Gideon Josephs is particularly popular with the children & staff alike and we feel he is a genuine asset to The Elms. Gideon Moss is also very popular with the children and makes their sports activities fun and enjoyable. “
