## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about the curriculum: I'm not sure about the new Learning Challenge Curriculum yet. Some days my child seems to enjoy learning, but other days they seem confused. The school is very welcoming, and the staff are always willing to chat, but I'm hoping to see more progress soon. *(Dec 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent education and community: My child attended Halam C of E Primary School for three years and had a wonderful experience. The curriculum was engaging, the sports and arts programs were fantastic, and the school's Christian values really shone through. We made many friends and will always be grateful. *(Oct 2022)*
- **5/5** — A warm & welcoming school: My child has been thriving since joining Halam Primary School. The teachers are supportive and genuinely care about each child's well-being. The values of kindness, respect, and empathy are woven into everyday life, which I love. *(Sep 2022)*
