I have 4 children at this school, and find it extremely friendly and welcoming, from staff, teachers, and other families and pupils. The school has a very "family orientated" approach. When my twins started in reception they were paired with a year 6 to be their "buddy", they loved having someone to look out for them and have lunch with. The year 6's also love having the responsibility. All of the pupils know and interact with each other across the school. It is an all round school that aims to make confident, independent learners which suits all 4 of my different children very well. The children spend lots of time learning outside in the woods in forest school lessons learning core subject like maths without even realizing it. The nursery is very well structured and has prepared my children very well for moving up through the school. They learn Spanish from nursery all the way through the school, and my children never cease to amaze me in how many Spanish words they know. It is second nature to the children to perform and stand up in front of one another and parents at nativity (for EYSF) to informal and formal concerts throughout the year, which is always a pleasure. All of the teachers are so enthusiastic and always put in 110% showing a really care for the children, and keen to keep parents involved and informed. I love that the class sizes are small (around 10 per class) which allows the teachers to spend time and really get to know the children. The children are taught different subjects by specialist teachers, much like a secondary school from year 3. The head teacher is very down to earth and visible, nothing is ever too much trouble. All in all a fantastic school that has excellent results with happy well rounded confident children.
