"A wonderful school experience"

I'm so grateful to have found Canford Heath Infant School for my daughter. The 'Rights Respecting' values really shine through in the way the teachers and staff treat the children. My daughter loves her Forest School sessions and it's great to see her developing in all areas. We feel very welcome and supported.

"Excellent facilities and staff"

We've been impressed with the facilities at Canford Heath Infant School, especially the cookery club and mindfulness sessions. The teachers are all very friendly and approachable. My son is thriving and enjoying his time at school. One small suggestion would be to make the website a bit easier to navigate.

"A good school, but some improvements needed"

I have mixed feelings about Canford Heath Infant School. The teachers were very dedicated and my son loved his time in the Lego club. However, I felt that the school could have done more to engage with parents and keep us informed about what was happening. Overall, a good school but could be improved with a bit more communication.
