"Wonderful school, caring teachers!"

We've just had the best experience at Bury CofE Primary. Our daughter loves the forest school and the teachers are always available to help. We can see the values of love, honesty, forgiveness and respect being taught and practised every day.

"Mixed experience"

We've had a mixed experience at Bury CofE so far. Our child is enjoying the school and the teachers are friendly, but we've had some issues with communication and organisation. Hopefully, things will improve as we settle in.

My son is thriving at Bury CofE. The teachers are supportive and the facilities are excellent - the sports hall and playground are his favourite places to play. We feel so lucky to have such a wonderful school in our community.

"A great school with a strong sense of community"

I have very fond memories of our time at Bury CofE Primary. The school has a strong sense of community and the teachers were always supportive. The curriculum was varied and engaging, and our children loved the forest school and sports opportunities.
