"Mixed feelings about the school"

We've only been at Amberley CofE for a few months now, and while the staff are all lovely, we're not entirely sure it's the right fit for our child. The school's emphasis on values is great, but we're a bit worried about the lack of extracurricular activities for older children

"Excellent preparation for secondary school"

Our child moved on to secondary school last year and we were blown away by how well-prepared they were. The 'AVF Backpack' really does equip children with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. We're so grateful for the time our child spent at Amberley CofE
