"Some ups and downs but mostly great"

We're still relatively new to Trowell CofE Primary School but it's been a bit of a mixed bag so far. Some of the teachers are excellent but others have been a bit hit and miss. The facilities are great and the values are lovely, but I'm not entirely convinced that it's the right fit for us.

"Caring and supportive environment"

Our son has really thrived at Trowell CofE Primary School. The teachers and staff are so caring and supportive, and the school's Christian values are really evident in the way that the children are taught. We're really happy with our decision to send him here.

"Great experience for my children"

We moved out of the area a few years ago but we still keep in touch with Trowell CofE Primary School. Both of my children had a great experience there and I'm so grateful for the education and values that they learned. I'd highly recommend the school.
