"Love this school!"

I've been so impressed with Reculver CofE Primary School since my child started in Year 2. The new facilities are fantastic, especially the Early Years classrooms and Special Educational Needs Hub. The values of love, hope and compassion are truly evident in the way the teachers and staff care for each child. My child is thriving and I feel so welcome as a parent.

"Excellent education and values"

Reculver CofE Primary School has exceeded our expectations in every way. The teachers are knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and the programs like Mathletics and Accelerated Reader have really helped my child's maths and reading skills. I love the Christian values that underpin everything the school does - it's a warm and inclusive community.

"Happy and supportive school"

We're really happy with Reculver CofE Primary School so far. My child has settled in quickly and the teachers are responsive to any concerns I've had. I appreciate the focus on character development and the opportunities for parental involvement. My only suggestion would be to provide more information for parents about upcoming events and school projects

"Good but room for improvement"

My child attended Reculver CofE Primary School for a few years and I have mixed feelings about our experience. Some of the teachers were excellent and really cared about the children, but there were others who seemed less engaged. I appreciate the facilities and programs, but I felt that the school could have done more to support children who were struggling academically. Overall, it's an okay school, but I'm not sure I'd recommend it to everyone.
