"Mixed Feelings"

We've had a bit of a mixed experience at Compass Point Primary. The staff are lovely and the school's emphasis on kindness is great. However, we've found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy at times and the facilities, while modern, are not always well-maintained. Overall, it's been an okay experience, but we're not entirely sure whether we'll stay or move to a different school.

"Excellent Primary School!"

We moved to Bristol a year ago and were worried about finding a good school for our daughter. Compass Point Primary has exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff are friendly and supportive, the facilities are top-notch, and the emphasis on kindness and respect is fantastic. Our daughter has thrived here and we couldn't be happier.

"Outstanding Education"

My child was at Compass Point Primary for three years and it was an incredible experience. The teachers were always available to offer help and support, the facilities were modern and clean, and the school's values really shone through. My child developed a love of learning that has stayed with them to this day. We were sad to leave but are so grateful for the time they spent at Compass Point.
