"Mixed feelings about the school"
We have been at Ford End Primary for a year now and while we like the school's emphasis on creativity and community, we do find the workload for parents a bit overwhelming at times. The teachers seem to be doing their best, but we've had a few issues with communication and organization. We're hoping to see some improvements in the coming months.

"A happy and engaging school"
We were a bit worried about our child making friends and settling in at a new school, but from the very first day, we knew we had made the right choice. The school's focus on building strong relationships and creating a sense of community has made our child feel safe, happy, and confident. The teachers are always approachable and the facilities are excellent.

We have been part of the Ford End Primary School community for 3 years now and it has been an incredible experience. The school's values of courage, creativity, and compassion are truly embedded in every aspect of the school's curriculum and daily life. The teachers are dedicated, enthusiastic, and always willing to listen. We feel so lucky to be a part of this caring community.

"Excellent education and values"
We moved to a new area and our child finished at Ford End Primary a couple of years ago, but we still keep in touch with many wonderful friends we made during our time there. The school's emphasis on creativity, optimism, and compassion has had a lasting impact on our child's development and we will always be grateful for that.
