## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Thrilled with Docking CofE Primary Academy: We've been so happy with the standard of care and education our children have received at Docking CofE. The facilities, such as the sports hall and 'Field of Dreams', are fantastic and the teachers genuinely care about the children's well-being. We're particularly impressed with the emphasis on values like courage, curiosity and compassion, which we feel are essential for our children's future success. *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good school with some areas for improvement: We've been pleased with the education our child has received at Docking CofE, but there are a few areas where the school could improve. The facilities are great, and the teachers are generally supportive, but we've experienced some inconsistency with communication and organisation. We're hoping the school will address these issues in the future. *(Mar 2021)*
- **5/5** — Wonderful education and values-based approach: I have two children who attended Docking CofE and I was consistently impressed with the quality of education they received. The teachers were supportive and nurturing, and the values-based approach really helped my children develop into kind and confident individuals. We're so grateful for the experience our children had at the school. *(Jun 2020)*
