"Our Happy Experience at Catton Grove"

We've been at Catton Grove for 3 years now and have had a fantastic experience. The school's commitment to its values of hard work, kindness and respect is something that shines through in everything they do. Our son's confidence and love of learning have grown so much since starting here, and we're so grateful for the support of the staff. The performing arts and music provision is also fantastic!

"Generally Positive, but Some Room for Improvement"

We've been at Catton Grove for 2 years now and have had a mostly positive experience. The staff are friendly and supportive, and the school's facilities are great. However, we've found the communication between teachers and parents to be a bit patchy at times, which can make it difficult to know what's going on. We're hoping this will improve as our child gets older.

"A School that Truly Cares"

I have nothing but praise for Catton Grove Primary. My child attended the school from Reception to Year 6 and the staff went above and beyond to support her throughout. The school's focus on social and emotional learning, as well as its commitment to inclusivity and diversity, sets it apart from other schools. I'm so grateful for the experience my child had here.
