"Wonderful School with Amazing Staff"

My children love attending Long Buckby Junior School. The staff are friendly, approachable and really care about the well-being of their students. The Secret Reading Garden is a lovely initiative that has brought the school community together and encouraged a love of reading in my children. We feel so lucky to have this school in our village.

"Generally Positive but Some Concerns"

My child is enjoying their time at Long Buckby Junior School, but I do have some concerns about the class sizes and the amount of homework set. The staff are generally very supportive, but I have experienced some difficulties in getting in touch with my child's teachers when I need to. The Secret Reading Garden is a lovely initiative, but I wish I had been informed about it sooner so I could have attended the grand opening.

"Excellent Education and Facilities"

My children attended Long Buckby Junior School from Reception to Year 6 and had a great experience. The school's focus on individualised learning and its commitment to community-based initiatives, such as the Secret Reading Garden, really stood out to me. The facilities are also excellent, with a great library and sports equipment.
