"Excellent School with Wonderful Staff!"

I'm so impressed with how dedicated and caring the staff at Cressing Primary are. My child loves coming to school and is always excited to tell me about the amazing things they've done each day. The school's expansion plans are also very exciting and I'm confident that my child will thrive in this supportive environment.

"Lovely School with Great Facilities!"

I'm really happy with the progress my child has made since starting at Cressing Primary. The school's facilities are excellent, with plenty of opportunities for outdoor learning and after-school activities. The staff are always approachable and it's lovely to see the children being encouraged to explore and question.

"Mixed Feelings"

I have mixed feelings about Cressing Primary. On the one hand, the staff were always friendly and my child settled in well. However, I felt that the curriculum was a bit too focused on rote learning and not enough on creative activities. I'm not sure if this is something that has changed since I left, but I do hope they've made some improvements.
