"Another misleading Ofstead report"

A clinical environment; it has all the ‘correct’ components, but lacks character…and it is far too big for a primary school. I have a feeling there will be lonely children swept under the carpet of a bureaucratic teacher.

There also little opportunity for fresh teachers since there is backlog of entitled persons who haven’t been honest about the school’s history.

"5/5 - A Fantastic School with Excellent Values"

I've been blown away by the friendly and approachable staff at Horton Grange Primary School. My child has excelled in their reading and maths skills since starting in Year 1, and I love that the school rewards the key HORTON values of being happy, healthy and hardworking. The facilities are also impressive, especially the new playground which my child just loves!

"4/5 - A Caring and Challenging Environment"

My child has been a student at Horton Grange for a few years now, and I've seen a significant improvement in their confidence and independence. The staff are always happy to help and offer support when needed, but I do think the school could improve its communication with parents - sometimes I find it difficult to get updates on what's happening in the classroom.

"4.5/5 - A School that Truly Cares"

I was a bit worried about sending my child to a new school, but from the moment we walked in the door, the staff at Horton Grange made us feel welcome. They're always happy to answer any questions we have, and they've worked with us to develop a special education plan to help my child overcome some challenges. I love that they have a prefect system in place to teach children about responsibility and leadership.
