- **5/5** — An outstanding school with a warm atmosphere: I'm absolutely delighted with Sauncey Wood Primary School. My child has blossomed since joining the school two years ago. The facilities are excellent, the staff are kind and supportive, and the values of curiosity, kindness, and self-improvement are truly inspiring. We feel so lucky to be part of this wonderful community. *(Sep 2023)*
- **4/5** — A good school with some room for improvement: We've been at Sauncey Wood Primary School for a year now and have mixed feelings. On the one hand, the school is very inclusive and the teachers are supportive. On the other hand, the curriculum seems a bit rushed and there's not enough attention paid to the individual needs of children. We've had to work hard to get our child the support they need, but overall it's a good school. *(Jun 2023)*
