• I believe that the teachers and Head Teacher genuinely care about each pupil as an individual. They are always welcoming, friendly and go above and beyond as compared to other schools. They make their learning fun and engaging and the level of care which they show towards each child is amazing. The forest school and green space available is a brilliant asset. They involve the school within the wider community activities and vice versa: which I think is important as it creates an important sense of belonging and community spirit. I genuinely couldn’t recommend this school enough. I haven't heard or seen of a case of bullying either within any of the years either xxx or xxx has attended, which I think speaks volumes towards the attitudes of both the staff and pupils.

• Excellent staff and individual support
