School location
Ealing is located in the heart of West London and is the third largest borough. Ealing Broadway has all the benefits of a small town with a great community atmosphere and local businesses, but all the benefits of being close to the centre of London, with excellent transport links.
Whatever your interests, there is something here for you!
Shopping
At the hub of the borough is the Ealing Broadway shopping centre. With major retailers, global brands and a wide variety of restaurants, it is certain to offer something for everyone. On sunny days, the courtyard is the perfect place to relax with friends.
Close by is also Westfield London with its luxury designer brands, world famous Portobello Road Market, and The London Designer Outlet with at least 30% off everything!
Sports
Ealing has countless local sports clubs: badminton, canoeing, cricket, golf, tennis, football and swimming to name but a few!
There are also many gyms in the area starting from just £14.99 a month.
Outdoors
Home to eight Royal Parks, London boasts so much green space (47% of all land area) that it has officially been recognised as a national forest, the world’s first “National Park City.”
Walpole Park is on the doorstep of WLES. It is a registered English Heritage site, and home to Pitzhanger Manor and Gallery, which has stood on the grounds for over 200 years.
Kyoto gardens is an idyllic pocket of Holland Park, offering one of the most picturesque spots to unwind. Or, if you’re feeling focused, you can play a game on the giant chess board.
Culture and History
Here in Ealing we are proud to boast our festivals (comedy, blues and jazz to name but a few) and Pitzhanger Manor. The manor was recently reopened to the public and has been restored to its original Regency period design, as envisioned by architect and owner Sir John Soane, and alsofeatures contemporary art exhibitions.
