"Fantastic School Community"

We're really enjoying our time at Charlton Wood Primary Academy. The open door policy means I can pop in and see how my child is learning, and the staff are always happy to chat. My child loves the reading workshops and the playground is fantastic.

"Mixed Feelings"

We've only recently joined Charlton Wood Primary Academy, so I'm still getting to know the school. The facilities are great and the staff seem lovely, but my child is still adjusting to the new environment. I'm hoping things will settle down soon.
