"Excellent Start for Our Child"

We recently moved to the area and I was a bit worried about our child starting at a new school. However, the staff at Shears Green Infant School have been incredibly welcoming and supportive. The school's values of kindness, honesty and respect are evident in everything they do.

"Wonderful School!"

I am absolutely delighted with Shears Green Infant School! My child is in Year 2 and has thrived in this nurturing environment. The OPAL program is fantastic and my child loves the outdoor play and learning activities.

"A Good School with Some Room for Improvement"

We have a child who attended Shears Green Infant School a few years ago and while they had a generally positive experience, we felt that the school could improve in terms of communication with parents. However, the facilities are excellent and the staff are generally very supportive.
