"Some room for improvement"

We like Houghton-on-the-Hill Primary School, but sometimes we feel like the curriculum could be more diverse. Our child loves the school's music program, but it's a shame they don't offer more sports activities. Still, the teachers are all lovely and the school feels very supportive.

"A Great Foundation"

We moved out of the area a few years ago but are so grateful to Houghton-on-the-Hill Primary School for giving our children such a solid foundation in education and values. Their phonics program really made a difference for our child, who was struggling with reading.
