"Room for Improvement"

We've been pleased with the progress our child has made at Northwood Primary School, but we've had a few issues with communication from the teachers. We love the emphasis on outdoor learning and the school's commitment to wellbeing. However, we've found the school uniform policy to be a bit restrictive and would appreciate more flexibility in this area.

"An Outstanding School!"

We have been part of the Northwood Primary School community for 6 years and have had an amazing experience. The school's values of kindness, respect, and empathy are truly embedded in everything they do. Our child has thrived in the supportive and inclusive environment and we feel so grateful to have made such wonderful memories here.

"A Great Foundation for Life"

We moved away from Darlington last year, but our child still speaks fondly of their time at Northwood Primary School. The school's commitment to reading and phonics was impressive, and we loved the variety of extracurricular activities on offer. We would highly recommend the school to anyone looking for a nurturing and academically rigorous environment.
