"A wonderful school community!"
My daughter has settled in so well at Shanklea Primary. She loves her teacher, Mrs. Smith, and we've been impressed with the values the school promotes - Safety, Caring, Achievement, Resilience and Friendship. The facilities are also great, especially the playground and sports hall!

"Some positives and areas for improvement"
We've been happy with Shanklea Primary overall, but have noticed that some of the safeguarding policies and procedures could be made clearer for parents. On the plus side, our child loves the learning environment and the support from the teachers has been great.

"A fantastic school that exceeded our expectations!"
I have two children who attended Shanklea Primary and both thrived under the care of the school. The PE and Sports program is particularly impressive, with a range of activities and facilities that encourage children to get active and have fun. We're so grateful for the education our children received here!
