Surveys and Feedback

Examples of Parental Feedback from End of Year Reports – July 2026

  • One thing that has always stood out to us is the headteacher. Every single morning, he is at the school gate welcoming the children by name. It may seem like a small gesture, but it makes every child feel seen, valued, and important. That personal touch says so much about the caring culture of the school.
  • Every member of staff has been supportive, approachable, and always willing to help. The school creates an environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and happy to learn.
  • It is great seeing the progress our child has made in class so a massive thank you to Mr Glynn!
  • It’s been a real struggle at times this year but the staff stood by my daughter and helped her to build positive relationships and I do really appreciate it. Thank you!
  • Over the past year, my daughter has looked forward to going to school every day and has come home smiling. As a parent, there is very little more you could ask for than seeing your child happy, supported, confident, and thriving.
  • Thank you so much for everything you have done for our son over the past 2.5 years. He joined the school with no English, and seeing how much he has grown and achieved is truly amazing. This would not have been possible without the support, care, dedication, and passion of all the teachers and staff.
  • I am impressed and proud of my daughter’s achievements. There is nothing better than seeing your own child happy and doing so well.
  • Thank you for a lovely report, we are very proud of our son and what he has achieved this year. His biggest improvement being his reading, he has found a love for reading and no longer sees it as a chore. 
  • Our son is always putting his knowledge to use at home and loves telling us about what he’s learnt in school. We’re also extremely proud of how well he did in his Phonics test, he did fantastic!
