"Excellent school with a warm welcome"

As a new parent to the school, we were a bit nervous about how our child would settle in. However, the staff at Portway were incredibly welcoming and made us feel at ease from the start. The school's curriculum is engaging and relevant, and we've been impressed with our child's progress so far.

"Exceptional school community!"

We've been part of the Portway Primary School community for a few years now, and we've truly loved every minute of it. The school's emphasis on kindness and empathy is something that sets it apart from other schools we've visited. Our child has thrived academically and socially, and we feel confident that they're getting the best possible education.

"Great facilities and teaching staff"

We moved out of the area, but our child still talks fondly about their time at Portway Primary. The school's facilities are excellent, and the teaching staff are very supportive. We also appreciated the emphasis on extracurricular activities and the opportunities for children to engage with the local community.
