## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Room for Improvement, but Lovely Staff: We've had a mixed experience at Hartest Primary School so far. The staff are friendly and attentive, but sometimes the facilities feel a bit dated. The teaching of phonics and reading is strong, but we've noticed that the school could do more to engage parents in the wider life of the school. *(Nov 2021)*
- **5/5** — Wonderful School Community!: We've been at Hartest Church of England Primary School for a few years now, and I must say, it's an absolute delight to be part of this community. The teachers are supportive and enthusiastic, the facilities are excellent, and the values are truly embedded in everything they do. *(Feb 2021)*
- **4/5** — Excellent Education and Values: Our daughter thrived at Hartest Primary School, and we were impressed by the dedication of the staff and the sense of community that pervades the school. We were particularly grateful for the emphasis on Christian values and the support for the children's personal development. *(Sep 2020)*
