The school's focus on wellbeing and happiness is evident in everything they do, from the calming Early Years Department to the daily routines and activities. Highly recommend!

"Room for improvement in communication"

We have been generally pleased with Gamesley Primary School, but have sometimes struggled with communication from the school. It would be helpful to have more regular updates on our child's progress and activities. That being said, the staff are friendly and the facilities are excellent. Our child loves coming to school and we appreciate the emphasis on wellbeing and happiness.
