My child has been attending St. Mary Cray Primary Academy for a year now, and I couldn't be happier with the care and education they receive. The staff are always approachable and supportive, and the facilities are excellent. I particularly appreciate the emphasis on the values of Ambition, Collaboration, and Equity.

"Excellent school with a strong focus on community"
We've been part of the St. Mary Cray Primary Academy community for three years now, and I'm consistently impressed with the school's commitment to creating a positive and supportive environment for all students. The outdoor learning facilities are a particular highlight, and my child has thrived in the OPAL program.

"Mixed experience"
We attended St. Mary Cray Primary Academy for two years before moving to a new area. While the staff were always friendly and supportive, I felt that the school could improve its communication with parents, particularly regarding important events and updates. The facilities were generally good, but some areas could benefit from modernization.
