"Some Good, Some Room for Improvement"

We've been pleased with Sydenham Primary overall, but there have been a few issues with communication and class sizes. The facilities are great, though, and our child loves the range of extracurricular activities on offer. We're hoping things will improve as the school continues to grow.

"A School That Truly Cares"

We moved to Leamington Spa a few years ago and our child settled so well into Sydenham Primary. The staff went above and beyond to support our child's transition, and we were always kept informed about their progress. We're so grateful for the time our child spent there.
