Longwood School & Nursery Sold to Independent Operator via RDK

Redwoods Dowling Kerr are delighted to announce the sale of Longwood School & Nursery Limited.

Longwood School & Nursery is a private preparatory school and nursery situated in Bushey, Hertfordshire. Longwood Nursery was established back in 1989 with the school opening in 1994 in response to an overwhelming demand for exemplary quality primary education in the area.

The nursery has a current capacity of 128 children and the school has 120 children.

The sale was expertly led by Sarah Ellison with the chosen buyer being an independent operator in the sector.   

The former owner of Longwood said: “We found Sarah and the team at Redwoods Dowling Kerr to be professional, helpful and personable throughout the sale process; always available on the phone to advise. We thoroughly recommend their service to anyone considering selling their business.”

Deputy Manager Sarah Ellison stated: “It has been a pleasure working with Malcolm, although the sale saw some ups and downs, he remained positive, and we worked with him to secure the right purchaser. It was the seller’s desire to retire and spend more time with family that led him to Redwoods Dowling Kerr and to help him achieve this has been great. We would like to wish the purchaser all the best and we are confident the business will continue to grow for many more years to come.”
