## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic Facilities and Values: I'm so impressed with the school's facilities - the sports pitches and gyms are top-notch. The values they teach, such as wisdom and hope, really shine through in the way the staff support the children. My child is thriving here and I feel safe knowing they're in such good hands. *(Jun 2022)*
- **5/5** — A Great Community Feeling: We've felt so welcome at The Priory from day one. The teachers are always approachable and the school's events, like the dance show, are always a highlight of the year. My child loves the fact that they can explore their faith and spirituality, and I'm grateful for the support we've received as a family. *(Mar 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent Education, but Communication Could Improve: I have nothing but praise for the education my child received at The Priory. The teachers were always supportive and engaged, and the school's focus on community and serving others is wonderful. However, I felt that communication with parents could be better - it's easy to feel left in the dark sometimes. *(Sep 2021)*
