## Recent parent reviews

- **3/5** — Mixed feelings about the school: “Hi everyone, we have been allocated a C of E primary that seems very focused on religion and on bringing it into every subject. … It wasn’t one of our top choices, more a default really due to distance.” *(Jun 2025)*
- **4/5** — “Our son goes to a C of E school and my husband and I are atheists: “Our son goes to a C of E school and my husband and I are atheists. When we looked round we didn't feel it was overly religious, and the faith wasn't high up in their acceptance criteria. He's been there two years and it is fantastic.” *(Jul 2024)*
- **4/5** — “My children go to a very C of E school because it’s the best school here: “My children go to a very C of E school because it’s the best school at this school. The first year there was lots of talk of god coming home … We are honest with our children about our beliefs and our children critically questioned both us and what they were being taught.” *(May 2024)*
- **3/5** — Love the idea of religion being part of the school expe: “However, it's a CofE school and I really don't love the idea of religion being part of the school experience. I had hoped it would be minimal with some hymns in assembly and nativity at Christmas … but looking at their site it seems a bit more involved than that.” *(Oct 2023)*
