"Fantastic school, amazing values"

We've been at Glusburn for 5 years now and we love it. The values of Ready, Respectful and Safe are really evident in everything they do. The facilities are fantastic, especially the forest area and playgrounds. My child has thrived here, thanks to the great teachers and support staff.

We chose Glusburn because of its reputation for being a caring and inclusive community. My child has settled in quickly and loves their teacher. The nursery provision is also excellent, with plenty of space for the kids to play.

"Some good, some room for improvement"

We were at Glusburn for 3 years and had some great experiences, but also some challenges. The staff were mostly friendly and supportive, but at times it felt a bit chaotic. The facilities are great, but sometimes the school's priorities didn't seem to match our expectations. Overall, it's an okay school, but could be better.
