"Fantastic school experience"
We transferred our children to Steep Church of England VC Primary School mid-year and we've been thoroughly impressed with the warm welcome and the way they've settled in. The mud kitchen and outdoor play areas are a joy to watch them enjoy and the sense of community is palpable. We're so grateful to have made the move!

"Mixed bag"
Our experience at Steep Church of England VC Primary School has been a bit of a mixed bag. The school's commitment to its Christian values is admirable and the staff are always available to help. However, we've found the curriculum to be a bit too focused on rote learning and not enough on critical thinking. Overall, it's been an okay experience for our child, but we're not entirely convinced it's the right fit for us.

"Our children thrived at Steep"
My children attended Steep Church of England VC Primary School from Reception to Year 6 and it was a truly transformative experience for them. They loved the school's values of Faith, Perseverance and Wisdom and the staff's commitment to providing a safe and supportive environment. They went on to achieve great things and we'll always be grateful for the foundation Steep provided.
