Are you looking for state schools as Kingston Grammar is independent?
If you are looking just for state selective schools then you'll have to travel a fair distance from Chessington. You could look at the boys schools in Sutton - Wilsons, Wallington boys and Sutton Grammar, but it will be a difficult bus journey from there. Have you thought about Glyn in Ewell? It takes 10% on the basis of an entrance exam and the rest from catchment. It has good results too, but is heavily oversubscribed.
Hope that helps
