"Excellent school with a strong sense of community"

We joined Rowde mid-year and were a bit worried about disrupting our child's education, but the school has been fantastic. The teachers are brilliant, the facilities are great and the wrap-around care has been a lifesaver. We feel really lucky to have found such a wonderful school.

"Lovely school, kind staff and great values!"

We've been at Rowde for 2 years now and I really feel like our children are happy and thriving here. The staff are kind, caring and always willing to listen to any concerns. We love the 'Learn, Grow, Love' ethos and the way it's woven into every aspect of the school.

"Some good things, but room for improvement"

We moved out of the area and our child is now at a different school, but we still keep in touch with friends from Rowde. While we loved the sense of community and the 'Learn, Grow, Love' ethos, there were a few aspects of the school that didn't quite work for us. The communication could be better and we felt that our child's individual needs weren't always met.
