"Mixed feelings about our experience"

We've had a bit of a mixed experience with Tackley CE Primary School. Our child has made some great friends and enjoys the music and arts initiatives. However, we've found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy at times and there have been some issues with classroom organisation.

"A great school for our children"

Our children attended Tackley CE Primary School a few years ago and had a great experience. The school's focus on kindness, responsibility, and curiosity really aligned with our values. We were pleased to see the school's commitment to the community and the Parable of the Lost Sheep really helped our children understand the importance of teamwork and inclusion.
