"Excellent school with caring staff"

We've been lucky enough to find a school that really understands the importance of 'being respectful, caring, responsible, active and friendly'. The staff are so caring and supportive, and the facilities are great. My daughter has settled in well and is making progress.

"Mixed feelings about Portway"

My child attended Portway Junior School a few years ago and had some good experiences, but I was a bit disappointed with the level of communication from the school at times. However, the Forest School was a highlight for her and she still talks about it today.
