## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful School Experience: Our family has been part of the Barry Primary community for 3 years now, and we couldn't be happier. The nursery team has been fantastic in developing our child's social skills and love for learning. We also appreciate the emphasis on emotional intelligence and teamwork. The school's motto, 'Together we care, learn and grow', truly reflects the warm and supportive environment. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Varied Experience So Far: We've had a somewhat mixed experience since joining Barry Primary. Our child has struggled to adjust to some of the classroom routines, but the teachers have been understanding and accommodating. On the other hand, the Parent Stay and Read program has been a highlight for us, and we appreciate the opportunities for parents to engage with the school *(Feb 2022)*
- **4/5** — Great Support for Siblings: We were impressed with the school's approach to supporting our children's transition from the nursery to Reception. The staff were very helpful in easing our child's anxiety and making sure they settled in quickly. Although we've moved to a different area, we still keep in touch with some of the teachers who made a lasting impression on us. *(Jun 2021)*
