## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Pilton Infants is absolutely wonderful!: My child started in Reception and we've been so impressed with the school's approach to Learning for Life. The teachers are kind, experienced and really care about the kids. We've also loved the trips and activities they've done, especially the visit to Exmoor Zoo! *(Aug 2023)*
- **4/5** — Pilton Infants has exceeded our expectations: We moved to the area just before our child started in Year 1 and were hesitant about joining a new school. However, the warm welcome and commitment to Building Learning Power has really helped them settle in. The staff are very supportive and we feel like they're getting a great education. *(Nov 2022)*
- **4/5** — Needs improvement in some areas: While we've been generally happy with Pilton Infants, we've noticed some inconsistency in the quality of teaching and resources. The staff are often very pleasant, but sometimes it feels like they're not adequately prepared for the children's needs. We're hoping things will improve as they settle in. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — A truly special school: My children went to Pilton Infants from Reception to Year 2 and we have nothing but praise for the school. The global partnerships and Building Futures initiatives are truly innovative and have given them a love of learning that will stay with them for life. We feel so lucky to have had our children educated here. *(May 2022)*
