"Wonderful Staff and Facilities"

East Tilbury Primary School has been an amazing experience for my child. The staff are friendly, caring and really make an effort to get to know each child. We love the facilities, especially the forest school and art room. My child has grown so much and can't wait to start year 5!

"Co-op Values Shine Through"

As a parent, I love how East Tilbury Primary School incorporates the co-op values into everyday life. My child is learning about empathy, respect and kindness, and it's amazing to see her apply these in her relationships with her friends and teachers. The teachers are also very supportive and keep us updated on her progress.

"Great Curriculum and Activities"

My child has been at East Tilbury Primary School for a few years now, and I'm really impressed with the curriculum and activities on offer. The teachers are enthusiastic and make learning fun, especially in subjects like science and history. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that I wish they offered more extracurricular activities for older children.

"Mixed Feelings"

I have mixed feelings about East Tilbury Primary School. On the one hand, my child had a great time with her friends and enjoyed the forest school program. On the other hand, I felt that the communication with teachers could be improved, and the school could do more to support children with special needs. Overall, it was an okay experience, but I wouldn't wholeheartedly recommend it.
