"Love the sense of community!"

I've been blown away by the warmth and welcoming nature of the staff and families at Pennine Way Primary. The facilities are amazing, and my child loves the new instruments in the playground! The sense of community is palpable, and I feel so grateful to have made this choice for my little one.

"Good, but could be better"

I was a big fan of Pennine Way Primary when my child was there, but now that they've moved on, I can see some areas for improvement. The sports facilities are still top-notch, but I think the school could do more to engage parents in decision-making. That being said, my child had a great time and developed some amazing friendships.

"Excellent pastoral care"

I've been impressed by the focus on pastoral care at Pennine Way Primary. My child has settled in quickly, and the teachers are always available to offer support. The school's values of kindness, resilience, and empathy really shine through, and I feel confident that they're being instilled in my child.
