"Lovely school with a friendly atmosphere"

I've been my child's parent for a few years now, and I'm really pleased with the progress they've made. The school values of 'Be Kind, Be Honest and Be Respectful' are something we talk about at home as well, and I think it's great that the school is reinforcing this. The World War 2 tunnels are also a great resource for learning.

"Mixed feelings about the school"

I have mixed feelings about Clifford Road Primary School. On the one hand, my child enjoyed their time there and the staff were always supportive. On the other hand, I think the school could do more to improve the maths curriculum, as I felt it was a bit lacking when my child was there. Still, overall a decent school.
