My child has thrived here, especially in the after-school clubs, which have helped them develop new skills and make friends. I highly recommend this school.

"Good School, Room for Improvement"

My child has been attending Oughton Primary and Nursery School for a few years now, and we have been generally pleased with the experience. The school has a great atmosphere and the staff are friendly. However, I feel that the school could do more to engage parents and keep us informed about what's happening in the classroom. Also, the school meals could be improved. Overall, it's a good school, but there's definitely room for improvement.

We moved out of the area, but I wanted to leave a review for Oughton Primary and Nursery School. My child had an amazing time here, and it's where they learned to read and write. The staff were always approachable and supportive, and the values of the school really resonated with us. If you're looking for a school in Hitchin, I would definitely recommend Oughton.
