"Excellent School Experience"

I'm so impressed with the Forest School provision at Queen Eleanor. My child loves going on outdoor adventures and learning through play. The staff are all so supportive and enthusiastic, and the school's values of ambition, equity, and opportunity really shine through.

"Wonderful School Community"

We've been part of the Queen Eleanor community for a few years now, and I'm consistently blown away by the warmth and inclusivity of the school. From Forest School to the after-school clubs, there's always something exciting happening. The staff are so responsive to parents' needs, too.

"Great School, but Room for Improvement"

We were really happy with the care and education our child received at Queen Eleanor during their time here. The Big Quiz Night and other community events were great fun. However, I think the school could benefit from more support for parents of children with SEND.
