"A Home from Home"

We moved to Ilkeston and were nervous about finding a school that matched the values we hold dear. Morley Primary has exceeded our expectations in every way. From the warm welcome to the children's excitement about learning, we know our child is in good hands. The facilities and resources are excellent, and we love the focus on community and inclusivity.

"Good, but Room for Improvement"

We've been happy with our child's progress at Morley Primary, but there have been some issues with communication from the teachers. We love the school's focus on the arts and the enthusiasm of the staff, but we've encountered some challenges with the school's administration. With a bit more attention to detail, we're confident this school could be truly outstanding.

"A School that Truly Cares"

We moved away, but our children still talk fondly of their time at Morley Primary. The teachers were always supportive, and the school's emphasis on emotional intelligence and resilience served them well in later years. We feel grateful to have had the opportunity to be part of the Morley Primary community.
