"Ravenstone Primary is a True Gem!"

We're so grateful to have found Ravenstone Primary School. Our son has been thriving since starting Year 4 - the Forest School and outdoor classrooms are a highlight of his week. The values of kindness, curiosity, and confidence are truly embedded in the school's ethos.

"Wonderful School but Room for Improvement"

Our family has a strong connection with Ravenstone Primary School having had two children attend. We loved the inclusive community and the support for children with special educational needs. However, we found the communication with parents could be improved, and there were a few instances of inconsistency in teaching practices.
