"Excellent School for Our Children!"

We are so glad we chose Countess Wear Primary for our children. They love the forest school and TV studio, and we appreciate the emphasis on kindness and respect. The staff are always approachable and supportive.

"A School That Truly Cares"

From the moment we started at Countess Wear Primary, we felt welcome and supported. The school's values of being 'ready, willing and able' really shine through in the way the children are encouraged to be their best selves. We will miss this school when our child moves on.

"A Great Place for Learning"

I have two children who attended Countess Wear Primary and they both thrived there. The school's curriculum is well-rounded and the facilities are excellent. My only criticism is that the school could do more to engage with parents after the children have left.

"Some Strengths, Some Weaknesses"

We have been pleased with some aspects of Countess Wear Primary, such as the music program and the school's emphasis on kindness. However, we have found the communication between teachers and parents to be a bit inconsistent at times.
